Dr Balme says most of the records considered in the study and anthropological observations suggest Aboriginal men did not take dingoes out when they went hunting because they would scare away large animals. Image: Kim

Photography has come along ways since then.

So, the dingoes maybe did the actual killing of small game for the women?

It sounds like her evidence is her own speculation.

During the 1777 campaign against Burgoyne, one of the patriots took his dog along on the march. After the dog became too tired to walk, his owner carried him. The owner's brother-in-law, also on the march, seemed to be amused by this care for his pet. The dog's owner explained that in case of necessity they could eat the dog.

Dingoes are an old breed. Like Basenjis, used for hunting.
