dingo 'superpack' forms on island

DINGOES have formed a superpack on the same south-east Queensland island where a young boy was mauled to death three years ago, a dingo expert said today.

University of Queensland researcher Nick Baker said the dingoes of Fraser Island appeared to have developed a tolerance for each other which was uncharacteristic of their breed.

He said dingoes traditionally lived and hunted in small territorial packs which would defend their food and territory to the death against invasion, especially from other packs.

"But here the whole island is like one big pack, with the smaller groups working together," Mr Baker told AAP.

On April 30, 2001, nine-year-old Clinton Gage of Brisbane was mauled to death by dingoes while his seven-year-old brother was injured as they returned to their family's Fraser Island campsite.

A 35+ year old female who is on the "hunt" for a much younger, energetic, willing-to-do-anything male. The cougar can frequently be seen in a padded bra, cleavage exposed, propped up against a swanky bar waiting, watching, calculating; gearing up to sink her claws into an innocent young and strapping buck who happens to cross her path. "Man is cougar's number one prey."

phew ! thank goodness i'm only 34, historyishere !
