The World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) presented on estimating dog population size, focusing on mark-resight and direct count methods, which are most relevant for free-roaming dogs in Southern Asia. WOAH discussed the importance of estimating dog population size for planning, monitoring, and evaluating intervention mechanisms. The presentation also included examples of how to estimate the dog population size for a particular city using the mark-resight and direct count methods.
