Evidence

Why this exists: the data doesn’t.

See what the record holds

India publishes a street-dog population for most states and almost nothing else. The numbers a programme is judged by are missing, and a missing number looks the same as a zero.

35/36 states and union territories publish a dog population.

2/36 publish sterilisation coverage, the number that says whether a programme works.

37.2 lakhdog bites reported in 2024
54suspected rabies deaths caught by surveillance; modelling puts the real toll near 19,000

What each state publishes.

Suspected human rabies deaths, 2024

Deaths caught by passive surveillance. Modelling puts the real national toll near 19,000 a year, so this is what was recorded rather than what happened.

Dog bites reported, 2024

Three kinds of missing.

Never measured

  • How many animals need treatment in a given year?
  • Do sterilisation gains hold over time?

Held, not published

  • How many sterilisations did each municipal ABC programme perform?
  • What share of Delhi's dogs are vaccinated against rabies?

Published, unusable

  • Where within Delhi are the animals?
  • Where do animal bites actually happen?

A dog is treated, released, and becomes anonymous again.

The ear notch says a surgery happened. It cannot say when, by whom, or whether the vaccination is still in date. The next team starts from nothing. StrayPaw is the record that outlives the rescue, so the numbers this page is missing can finally be counted, street by street.
