Average stray/feral dog home range? - 989 - 06-03-2014 04:52 PM
I am working on a paper about stray and feral dogs, and I am struggling to find information about the size of territories and home range (the area they frequent throughout the day in search of food and such). I am aware of the beck study, but that's only one study in a limited area, and I have been looking for more sources that can confirm Beck. It doesn't seem like a subject with much written on it, though... but if you know any, please link me any (preferably free) studies on the subject that you know of!

Try to contact Dr. Ian Dunbar. He is a veterinarian, behaviorist, author and dog trainer who has studied feral dogs for many years. You may be able to reach him through Facebook.
I'm not sure what you read but if it said anything about "packs" of feral dogs, it is woefully out of date. Feral dogs do NOT form packs.
