Through a bibliometric analysis of journal articles in Anglophone animal geographies (as a subdiscipline of human geography), we examine the intersections between citational trends, the contours of knowledge in the field and everyday academic lives.
The recent years have seen much controversy around street dogs in India, with increasingly polarised debate in public platforms about their impacts on human health and wellbeing, and about how they should be controlled or managed.
Dogs are our constant companions: models of loyalty and unconditional love for millions around the world. But these beloved animals are much more than just our pets - and our shared history is far richer and more complex than you might assume.
