The profile of pups in the foreground dingo image is why this is entitled Instinct. It was merely instinct of a wild animal that resulted in the natural tragedy.

Though this image is gory, Neville portrays Azaria as peaceful in the sleep of death. Look closely, and you will see the dingo watching Lindy it its eye.

Nipper was the Aboriginal tracker who tracked the culprit dingo on the night. The government said he was a drunk, and wouldn't know what he was talking about when he said a dingo took Azaria. But, when the NT's most notorious criminal needed tracking, who did they transport hundreds of kilometres to find him? Nipper.
