* The data for CARDA-only searches are unavailable for the years 1997 and
1996. Therefore, the totals for these years will always include the in-county searches.
There are currently 123
CARDA teams certified in wilderness. This number reflects
only the teams available at one time
in either area or trailing. One dog and two handlers count as one
team, as do one handler and two dogs, even if one dog is area and
the other is trailing.
The following is the breakdown by specialty. Here, one handler with two dogs
count as two teams, if they are in different specialties, or one team if they are in the
same specialty. Two handlers with one dog in the same specialty still count as only one
team.
