Many prairie rats have the bubonic plague but they hold a special place for the enviromentalists. The foolish humans just keep trying to infringe on the little dogs space in this world. What horsesh*t.

Wait until those mice they are worried about entering homes where infected prairie dogs live mixup monkey pox with their own Hanta virus and some plague and some West Nile and maybe SARS.

Has any lab tried to infect some lucky animal with ALL those at once?

Is there any known reason why an animal, or human couldnt have all those at one time?
