They hunt the wild dogs from planes, bait sheep carcasses with poison, pay a bounty of as much as $13 per dingo scalp. They have even built-and maintain-a 5,402-mile-long wire-mesh fence that zigzags across most of the island continent, protecting the nation's 148 million sheep from the predatory dingo.
