Evidence-based control of canine rabies: a critical review of population density reduction
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
It is proposed that the complex interactions between dogs and people may render culling of free-roaming dogs ineffective irrespective of the relationship between host density and disease incidence, and that vaccination is the most effective means to control rabies in all species.
