A controversial plan to confine millions of stray dogs in large-scale 'mega shelters' has been branded a potential global public health disaster. The strategy, ordered by the Supreme Court of Indiain 2025, would see stray dogs across Delhi, home to more than 33 million people, rounded up and relocated into high-density facilities. Each shelter could house up to 5,000 animals,concentrating large populations of stressed and potentially diseased dogs in close quarters. More than 2,000 experts, including doctors, veterinarians and epidemiologists, have warned that the plan creates the 'perfect storm' for zoonotic outbreaks that could spread beyond national borders. India is estimated to have between 15 million and 60 million stray dogs, a population linked to ongoing rabies cases and public safety concerns. But scientists say removing these animals could backfire, as dogs currently act as a 'bio-buffer,' limiting the spread of disease-carrying wildlife such as rats.
