The phrase “A dingo ate my baby” comes from the 1980 disappearance of Azaria Chamberlain, a 9-week-old Australian baby taken from a tent by a wild dingo at Ayers Rock. Her mother, Lindy, insisted a dingo was responsible, but was wrongly convicted of murder—a verdict only overturned years later when new evidence confirmed the dingo attack. It took until 2012 for the coroner to officially rule Azaria’s death a result of a dingo attack—proving that sometimes, the wildest excuse is the real story.
