The Threatened Species Scientific Committee (TSSC) received public nominations for the 2025 Proposed Priority Assessment List (PPAL), including two separate nominations for the Wilkerr dingo (Canis dingo ssp. Wilkerr) and one for the Alpine dingo (Canis dingo ssp. Alpine). The nominations were submitted under section 194F of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, alongside nominations for 15 other species, 4 ecological communities, and one threatening process. The Wilkerr dingo nomination, prepared by the Australian Dingo Foundation and Big Desert Dingo Research, characterizes the subspecies as "not conventionally accepted" and includes taxonomic and genetic differentiation arguments.
