Conservation groups raise concerns over killing of dingos

The Queensland government announced it has culled six dingoes in K’gari after the death of Piper James.

The announcement has brought concerns to conservation groups and First Nations communities.

A new petition created by The Dingo Conservancy asks the State government to stop culling dingoes and instead to work in non-invasive strategies to protect the species.
