PENA G, Iván; VIDAL F, Florangel  e  HERNANDEZ R, Aliesky. Stray dog population of the municipality of Camagüey, Cuba. Rev. investig. vet. Perú [online]. 2016, vol.27, n.4, pp.840-844. ISSN 1609-9117.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15381/rivep.v27i4.12570.

In order to estimate the population of dogs in the streets of Camaguey, Cuba a field survey was carried out on stray dogs in four neighbourhoods of the Camagüey city during September to December 2015. Data related to sex of the dog, presence of ectoparasites (ticks and fleas) and skin diseases was collected. Besides, faecal material was collected from roads and public places. The number of stray dogs per neighborhood ranged from 45 to 75. Furthermore, 62% of the observations corresponded to dogs with skin lesions or presence of ectoparasites and 61.7% of the fecal samples were positive for eggs of gastrointestinal parasites, mostly of the genera Ancylostoma and Toxocara
