Modelling sterilisation strategies to maximise population impact and cost-efficiency in free-roaming dog populations

Helen R. Fielding, Paul Richard Bessell, Andrew David Gibson, Karlette A. Fernandes, V.R. Amulya, Luke Gamble, Mark Bronsvoort, Ian Graham Handel, R. King, Richard John Mellanby, Stella Mazeri

The paper develops a model to evaluate sterilisation strategies for free-roaming dog populations, finding that repeated short campaigns with high early intensity and female sterilisation coverage best balance cost-efficiency and population reduction.
