A study examined how environmental factors, like maximum temperature and humidity, influence dog bite incidents in five Indian states: Bihar, Karnataka, Punjab, Telangana, and Uttar Pradesh. It found that higher temperatures are linked to more bites, while increased humidity may reduce them. An AI model developed in the study predicted dog bite risk with 87% accuracy.
