The Barefoot Bushman: Dancing With Dingoes (1997)

Synopsis

The barefoot bushman, Rob Bredl, presents his view of Australian nature with an emphasis on the dingo. Rob examines the arrival of the dingo from Thailand and traces its survival since European settlement. He also has some close encounters with snakes, crocodiles and other assorted Australian native animals.

Curator’s notes

A rambling laid-back view of nature. The content is presented in the style of Les Giddens and Harry Butler – not too intensely scientific.
