In October 2020, two trail bike riders discovered four orphaned dingo cubs in a hollow log on Yaitmathang country in the Victorian High Country. Two ran off, but two who were captured - Myrtle and Moko - could change the way dingoes are treated in Australia.
Speaking with NITV News, the Australian Dingo Foundation s Dingo Discovery Sanctuary and Research Center Manager Kevin Newman said it s difficult to tell how old Myrtle and Molo were when they came to the sanctuary, because they were so small. They were about three kilograms, because they were quite malnourished, said Mr Newman. Close to death, they had survived for several weeks on a diet of grass and crickets. They were obviously quite psychologically damaged as well.
