Spaying and Neutering would have a drastic impact on the number of wild/stray dogs and cats. I guess its a problem everywhere but here in the indian editions ive lived in people get pets and dont spay/neuter. Thats fine but they dont keep them confined either. So you have cats and dogs running around mating all the time. The whelp several kittens and pups at once it dont take long for numbers to climb. I hate to say it, im a dog person but im fixin to have to shoot my neighbors dogs. They arent fed, they are mangy, they come in our road to poop. They where standing in my front yard eyeballing my turkeys today. I got some m88's to pop at them but if they dont work i hate to think of what i will have to resort to. If the owner actualy carred about his animals I could talk to him, but it doesnt so it will be in vain. His female has a litter of pups each year for 3 years now and no sighn of slowing down, even though she is covered in mange.
