Overview

This dataset provides animal pose annotations on five categories are provided: dog, cat, cow, horse, sheep, with in total 6,000+ instances in 4,000+ images. Besides, the dataset also contains bounding box annotations for other 7 animal categories. Find details in the paper.

We annotate in total 20 keypoints: Two eyes, Throat, Nose, Withers, Two Earbases, Tailbase, Four Elbows, Four Knees, Four Paws. We select some samples from this dataset. The first figure represents keypoint-labeled animal instances from five animal categories. The second figure contains some animal images with only bounding box labeled from seven different categories: otter, bobcat, rhino, hippo, chimpanzee, bear and antelope.
