New: StrayPaw AI is in every workspace. See how it works

Research, kept apart from operations

Published research datasets help programmes plan. They are not programme work, so StrayPaw keeps them in a research archive with their sources and licences, and never counts them in operational figures.

The research archive

These datasets were imported for reference. They are attributed to their authors, stay labelled as research, and are being moved out of public operational counts.

How we treat every number

Recorded, not estimated

A count is a count of records. It is never presented as a population estimate.

Source on every row

Each imported row keeps its file, batch and organisation, so any figure can be traced back.

Research stays research

Research and public datasets are not counted as operational work on StrayPaw.

Cited and licensed

Datasets are credited to their authors with their licence, and removed on request.

Published evidence on ABC and rabies control

One record for every animal. Proof for everyone who funds the work.
