Why Doesn't India Know What To Do With Its Stray Dogs?

India has 80 million stray dogs and accounts for 30 percent of the world's rabies deaths. The Supreme Court's latest judgment proposes capturing and relocating strays from schools, hospitals, religious and tourism sites  but the experts on this episode argue it may do more harm than the problem it set out to solve. Host Anirban Chowdhury sits down with Gauri Maulekhi, Trustee of People for Animals, Alokparna Sengupta, Managing Director of Humane World for Animals India, and Luke Gamble, Founder and CEO of Mission Rabies, on why India's animal birth control programme collapsed despite 25 years of policy, what Malawi's rabies elimination model teaches us about structural solutions, and whether a judgment meant to protect citizens is quietly pushing India toward a less humane future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
