Dingo mauls a five-year-old boy at Fraser Island campsite as he’s rushed to hospital in a rescue helicopter suffering bite marks all over his body

A five-year-old boy has been airlifted to hospital after being attacked by a dingo on K’gari, formally known as Fraser Island.

The child suffered severe bite marks to his head, arms and back at the Ocean Lake campground about 4.10pm Sunday.

He was taken to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a serious but stable condition, by a rescue helicopter that landed on Orchid Beach.

The latest attack occurred just weeks after Orchid Beach was fenced off to keep dingoes out of the township, according to island residents.

It’s understood the campground where the attack happened remains unfenced.
