January 19, 2026
Australian media are reporting that a young Canadian woman has been found dead, her body surrounded by a pack of dingoes, on an island popular with backpackers and other tourists and off the country’s east coast.
Police in the Australian state of Queensland say they were told about the body of the 19-year-old victim around 6:35 a.m. local time on Monday, when officers were called to a beach on K’gari, also known as Fraser Island.
Police Inspector Paul Algie told reporters the body had been “interfered” with by the pack of about 10 dingoes, but it wasn’t known if she had drowned or been killed by the wild dogs.
