Dingo Encounters
Meet and interact with Wooleen Station’s two dingoes Eulalia and Steven for a once-in-a-lifetime wildlife experience
Australia’s Most Authentic Dingo Encounter
Embark on a thrilling adventure at Wooleen Station in outback Western Australia, the home of our friendly dingoes Eulalia and Steven. Seize the unique opportunity to be up close and interact with Australia’s majestic predators in their natural habitat.
This encounter is not just a visit. It’s an educational adventure that deepens your understanding and appreciation of Australia’s top-order land-based predator.
Discover the Significance of Dingoes
Join our expert guide Zali for a 45-minute talk to learn about the dingo’s physiology, eco-types, behaviour and their importance within the Australian landscape. Zali holds a Bachelor in Science, Wildlife and Conservation Biology, from La Trobe University. Here at Wooleen, we’re passionate to share our love of dingoes because they’re such important and beautiful creatures.
Sadly, the media has given dingoes a bad name, which has led to most people being afraid of these remarkable animals. We’re determined to help people gain a newfound appreciation for these extraordinary animals and their vital role within Australia’s unique ecosystem.
Hands-on Learning Experience
If you’re booking the full experience, you’ll get to meet Eulalia and Steven in their purpose-built enclosure, waiting to interact with you at their comfort level.. Each experience is different and we do not interfere or force the dingoes to do anything.
We encourage you to sit with one of the dingoes and have them eat out of your hand. This special time gives you an opportunity to experience firsthand how these beautiful creatures interact with people. Our aim is for you to walk away with a new level of respect for these iconic Australian predators.
