Bringing a strategic approach to dingo conservation through building a coalition of scientists, conservation advocates, and Indigenous people.
The Dingo 2030 Network is a coalition of scientists, conservation advocates, and Indigenous people. Our mission is to align policy with science, ensuring dingoes thrive in protected areas.
Advocating for science-based policies and transparency in wildlife management to protect dingoes and their ecosystems.

Together with our network, we are committed to protecting dingoes in national parks through science, transparency, and advocacy.
Dingoes, Australia's largest land predator, are vital to the health and stability of our ecosystems. As a keystone species, Dingoes regulate large herbivore populations, suppress invasive species, and maintain biodiversity. Dingoes also hold deep cultural and practical significance for Indigenous peoples across Australia, often considered family, hunting companions and sacred beings, not merely fauna.
Despite their ecological and cultural importance, Dingoes in many Australian protected areas are subjected to indiscriminate killing. This practice undermines ecosystem integrity and ignores growing scientific evidence supporting the Dingo's crucial role as an apex predator. Dingoes are classified as a native species in all Australian jurisdictions (except Tasmania). We are urging Australian governments and industry stakeholders to recognise and protect the Australian Dingo in protected areas ensuring their long-term survival to maintain ecological functions and cultural heritage.
To secure the long-term survival and ecological function of the Australian Dingo in Australian protected areas, Dingoes must thrive as an essential component of healthy and balanced ecosystems and Australian Indigenous cultures. Formal recognition of Dingoes as protected wildlife in Australian protected areas should be realised, and indiscriminate killing of Dingoes ended.
By 2030, we seek commitment from both government and industry to:
