This is not nearly enough! Nearly all of our small - medium native animals are vulnerable to extinction, endangered or critically endangered. We have the mammal extinction record! We must save what's left. I love camels, foxes, rabbits, goats etc. but only in their place of origin! The introduction of feral animals is a human caused problem so it is up to us to rectify the problem. I don't even consider the dingo a native animal. After the dingo reached mainland Australia, the thylacine & the 'devil' were wiped out. The dingo never made it to Tasmania. I do, however, understand that the dingo now plays the role of top predator & possibly keeps numbers of foxes & cats down where the dingo is present.
