Authorities in Australia are investigating whether a 19-year-old Canadian woman, whose body was discovered on a beach on Monday, was killed by dingoes.

The woman was found on K’gari, formerly known as Fraser Island, with police confirming her body had been "interfered with" by native Australian dogs. However, officers have refrained from speculating on the precise cause of death, highlighting that her body was discovered approximately 90 minutes after she had gone for a morning swim.
