Re: Some of our Australian fauna
Just saw this video of a trainer of our native dog the Dingo. Copy and paste into your browser to watch the video. Most of us never even see a Dingo!http://vimeo.com/74103389

Yes the mother was road kill.
I have seen other twins as young. As pinkies they would both be in the pouch, but as they got bigger and were not in the pouch all the time I noticed one in and one out of the pouch.
Do they take it in turns ? Hard to tell as you cannot tell them apart but I would guess they would take turns.
Animal twins have that same closeness as human twins do.

Re: Some of our Australian fauna
Talking of Blue Tongue Lizards the one in my garden was such a hit on YouTube it had 10 viewers in 4 months:Can you guess how it got its name? They are harmless things but very slow so dogs and cats get them.
Australians are such whizzes with naming things that when driving west of the Divide (or in Queensland) I get to the stage that if I see another One Mile Creek or Two Mile Creek I think I will scream.
They are 3.2km outside just about every bloody town!
