Lots of coyote attacks lately. I’d bet they are all rabid. When I worked on the Alaska North Slope >80% of the Arctic Foxes carried rabies. This was the time of year it affected them the most because of the lack of food. Prolly the same for coyotes in some areas.
You have to kill the animal and homogenize the brain. A special stain is used to identify “Golgi Bodies” in the brain. Got Golgis, got rabies.
I have a video copy of a film I got from the head of the Virology lab at the University of Alaska Fairbanks that was obtained in 1950 and shows the last moments of an Iranian shepherd who had been bitten by a rabid wolf. That is NOT a disease to be trifled with.
