  • Dingos and Wild Dogs - Trailer
    2026/01/20
    Dingos & Wild Dogs examines the uneasy boundary between nature and control through the story of an animal that refuses to belong. For thousands of years, dingoes and Indigenous Australians coexisted without conflict. Then European settlement brought a demand for categories, for fences, for animals that were either tame or eliminated. Hosted by analytical AI Ezra Wade, this seven-episode series replaces fear with context and myth with evidence, tracing how misunderstanding became policy and policy became violence. From ancient arrival to modern flashpoints, from the Azaria Chamberlain case to the Dingo Fence, discover what coexistence really demands when we encounter intelligence we cannot control.

  • Fear Enters the Story
    2026/01/20
    Episode 3 – Fear Enters the Story What began as legitimate concern about livestock predation evolved into generalized fear through rumor, exaggeration, and cultural transmission. This episode traces how specific incidents became sweeping narratives, how economic losses became moral panics, and how the term "wild dog" transformed from description to indictment. Fear was cultivated through storytelling, reinforced by bounty systems, and passed down through generations long after it ceased to match actual threat levels. Indigenous Australians, who lived alongside dingoes for thousands of years, never developed this fear, suggesting it was cultural rather than rational. By the early twentieth century, fear had become common sense, an inherited assumption that shaped perception without requiring evidence.

  • Not Wolves, Not Dogs — and That's the Problem
    2026/01/20
    Episode 2 – Not Wolves, Not Dogs — and That's the Problem European settlers expected dingoes to behave like domestic dogs and were disturbed when they did not. This episode explores the biology and behavior that set dingoes apart, including their intelligence, pack structure, breeding suppression, independence, and limited neoteny. While dingoes are technically the same species as domestic dogs, thousands of years of natural selection created an animal shaped for wild survival rather than human cooperation. Settlers misinterpreted this independence as defiance, their hunting behavior as malice, and their refusal to submit as threat. The biological reality was an animal occupying a unique evolutionary position between wild and domestic, but settlers had no framework for understanding or accepting that ambiguity.

  • Arrival: A Dog Without a Leash
    2026/01/20
    Episode 1 – Arrival: A Dog Without a Leash The dingo arrived in Australia three to five thousand years ago with human migrants from Southeast Asia, entering as a semi-domesticated companion rather than a wild invader. For millennia, Indigenous Australians lived alongside dingoes without ownership or domination, maintaining a cooperative relationship that required neither control nor eradication. This episode examines the archaeological and genetic evidence of dingo origins, their ecological impact on mainland Australia, and the fundamental difference between Indigenous and European approaches to human-animal relationships. The dingo's arrival was not the beginning of conflict but the beginning of coexistence, one that persisted successfully until colonial frameworks demanded animals be either domesticated or destroyed.
