Imagine a wild, yellow dog, but slightly smaller than a [[polar bear]]. That is the giant dingo.

Giant dingos happen in every non-freezing savage part of the world, and not only are they far larger than the usual dwarf, they happen in packs and will attack your dwarves.

They are scary opponents, far more dangerous (and common) than [[wolf|wolves]], and a creature you will probably lose a few adventurers to. Do not engage them without full [[armor]]. They are very fast, and are capable of biting off even armoured limbs. Alternatively, flee and outrun them.

Scary opponents, far more dangerous than wolves, although not as annoying as bogeymen. Do not engage them without full armor, or just flee and outrun them.

Do not let non-military dwarves next to them. Alternatively, [[cage]] them in [[trap]]s and tame them and start a giant dingo breeding program. While not [[Animal_trainer|trainable]], they are deadlier than most [[bear]]s and due to their {{token|LARGE_PREDATOR|c}} tag, they will attack enemies. As such, they make a good replacement for your [[dog]]s, and making them trainable is only a minor [[mod]]ding task.
