Do the Dingo live in family groups?
Yes, dingoes typically live in family groups consisting of a dominant breeding pair and their offspring. These family groups are known as packs and can range in size from two to twelve individuals, but usually average around four. The pack hierarchy is strictly organized, with the dominant pair at the top and the younger dingoes at the bottom. The alpha male and female are the leaders of the pack and are responsible for defending their territory and providing food for the group. The younger dingoes learn from the adults and eventually take on their own roles within the pack.
