I was in a hea,th c,inic one day when 2 people came in a woman first, who had been bitten mu,tiple times by a rabid fox, a d later her husband came in. Also bitten several, times. The woman had to strangle the fox to stop it from biting her- she had been walking ahead of her husband down to a beach along a long pathway in the woods a d got atta ked. The husband heard her screaming, and was also attacked. Her legs were all mangled up and bloody. Was quite a scene at the clinic- but I imagine quite the scene at the beach too.
A little raccoon walked up to our dog and bit her on the face. My daughter pulled it off and it bit her too.
Obviously, rabies shots for the two of them.
But most rabies cases in this country come from unrecognized bat bites. Someone picks up a bat, has no idea they have been bitten.
