Alice Springs, NT: Second man eaten by dogs

"I needed to get away after seeing the body - I spewed my guts up"

The body of a second man has been found at Alice Springs, being eaten by dogs.

The news comes after a South Australian man was found dead three weeks ago and a local Aboriginal woman suffered a horrific attack in May.

An anonymous 46 year old man found the deceased Aboriginal man's body being eaten by three dogs at the Hidden Valley camp. He chased the dogs off and checked for a pulse but found none. He directed a relative to contact police and then "needed to get away" and vomited in response to seeing the corpse.

The man remarked that "once dogs get the taste of human blood they'll never go back [to not attempting to acquire more human blood]."
