rabies

Rabies is a fatal but preventable viral disease transmitted through animal bites, particularly from bats, skunks, raccoons, foxes, and coyotes. Symptoms resemble flu-like conditions and can escalate to severe neurological issues if untreated, making immediate medical attention crucial after a potential exposure. Rabid animals exhibit erratic behavior and foaming saliva, and anyone encountering such an animal should maintain distance and contact animal control.
