Daniel | Question about rabies in canids? |
Raccoons, Jackals, Mongooses, Skunks e.t.c.
They're all major resuvoirs of rabies. But what animal do these species get rabies from? And what is the best option if I come into contact with a healty looking (written above)? Will it be best to have it killed? |

any mammal with rabies can transmit the virus to any other mammal and thus infect it. All that is necessary is for the infected saliva to come in contact with broken skin (usually through a bite wound of course).
In the USA, almost all cases of human rabies since 1970 have been the result of the variant from the silver-haired bat. So as a danger to humans, bats should be considered the greatest risk. HUMAN cases from dogs and cats is actually quite rare in the USA.
Of couse if you run into a healthy appearing animal, you should do nothing except know that it could transmit rabies - so there's no reason to try to have direct contact with wild animals. You should especially avoid contact with bats, skunks, racoons (the highest risks for human transmission). But there's no reason to go around killing animals without any suspicion of active rabies.
Your local Dept. of Public Health can inform you about your local rabies epidemiology -- i.e. how many cat, dog, skunk, bat rabies cases they've had in the past 5 years. Look 'em up in the phone book and give 'em a call. |
