Kosciuszko is one of the world's great national parks, and the largest in Australia's state of New South Wales. It also contains the highest mountain in Australia, as well as the famous Snowy River and all NSW ski fields.
The wild or semi-domesticated dog of Australia, probably introduced by the Aborigines from Asia about 8000 years ago. Dingos have short hair, bushy tails and pointed ears, and are about 60 cm high at the shoulders. European settlers almost exterminated the species because it preyed on sheep, but it multiplied rapidly when the introduction of rabbits provided it with a ready source of food. Dingoes also feed on kangaroos and other game. They hunt alone or in small packs.
The Tawny Frogmouth is one of the most interesting birds I've ever encountered. It's not an owl, but it does very closely resemble one. A native of Australia, this bird is worth getting to know.
