Yes I did indeed see heaps of dingoes on Fraser Island where they habitate. They are quite unusual looking dogs but actually pretty cute. Sort of a cross between a greyhound and a deer. However I was seriously paranoid they were going to come in my tent and eat me while I was sleeping. Actually, one did come up to our tent (I wasn't in it at the time) and the two British girls we were sharing with were inside with the door unzipped and they just yelled "Dingo!" really loud and it went away. Apparently they are conditioned to associate the word with danger and are scared away by it.
In other wildlife news: I saw my first kangaroo! Actually there were two of them and we saw them in a field as we were driving off the ferry from Fraser. Granted they were a bit far away and I only caught a glimpse, but still it was exciting. I know I'll see heaps of them while I travel around the country so I'm not disappointed.
