Stray dogs and cats

In Taipei city, with a land area of 271.79 sq. miles, there are an estimated 12,500 stray cats and 4,000 stray dogs. That comes to 14.7 stray dogs and almost 46 stray cats per square mile.

:(

The good news is the government is using the Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR) program to try and control the population without overcrowding shelters or leaving "territory gaps" that new strays would quickly fill.
