    There are plans to install more fences at popular beaches on Fraser Island in Queensland to prevent further dingo attacks


    The state government will spend two million dollars to build new fencing around Orchid Beach, which will span about 7 kilometres

    It follows a spate of attacks on the island - most recently a toddler was attacked and reportedly dragged by a dingo last month
