New Dingo Enclosure, Alice Springs Desert Park

Alice Springs Desert Park, Oct 2014

This new Dingo exhibit is a great addition to the Park.

I wonder how much time the animals will spend panting underneath that log shelter? The intense heat of Alice Springs will keep them seeking the cool parts of their exhibit. On a side note, this facility has one of the world's truly great nocturnal houses and the largest of its kind in the southern hemisphere.

It is surprisingly sparse on vegetation.

Yes, it was rather unvegetated, which is a bit surprising. The dingos don't spend all day in the exhibit, they are walked around the Park as well.
