Extractions: The first description of the disease dates from the 23rd. century BC in the Eshuma Code of Babylon. Antiquity, did know rabies as well as the link between human disease and animals, especially dogs. But, it is a famous Italian scholar, Girolamo Fracastoro, born in Verona, who described the disease, which obviously he had seen in many patients, and its routes of contamination in 1530, i.e. 350 years before Louis Pasteur. Patients killed themselves or were killed when bitten by a dog believed to be rabid. In this world of irrational terror the first post-exposure treatment in 1885 gave Louis Pasteur an international aura that his previous major scientific works had not been able to provide. With the exception of Antartica and Australia, animal rabies is present

Information about rabies and the types on wildlife in Canada that carries the virus.
http://www.lambtonhealth.on.ca/rabies/

Extractions: This page was reviewed or revised on Friday, November 01, 2002. Rabies is a virus that is carried in an animal's saliva. Humans and other animals can become infected through a bite or scratch from an animal with rabies, or if the rabies virus comes in contact with an open cut or the moist tissues of the mouth, nose or eyes. Rabies is fatal if untreated. Most of Canada's rabies is carried by wildlife. This makes control difficult and eradication almost impossible. Foxes, skunks, bats and raccoons are the main carriers and pose a continuing threat because they often live close to people. If they infect your farm animals or pets, they may endanger you. Keep your pets under control. Don't let them run free, especially at night.

Signs of rabies in animals.
http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvrd/kidsrabies/Warning/warning.htm

Extractions: Animals with rabies may act differently than healthy animals. Wild animals may move slowly or act tame. Also, some wild animals, like foxes, raccoons, and skunks, that normally avoid porcupines, may receive a face full of quills if they become rabid and try to bite these prickly rodents. A pet that is usually friendly may snap at you and try to bite. There are two common types of rabies. One type is "furious" rabies. Animals with this type are hostile, may bite at objects, and have an increase in saliva. In the movies and in books, rabid animals foam at the mouth. In real life, rabid animals look like they have foam in their mouth because they have more saliva. The second and more common form is known as paralytic or "dumb" rabies. The dog pictured below has this type. An animal with "dumb" rabies is timid and shy. It often rejects food and has paralysis of the lower jaw and muscles. Signs of rabies in animals include: Animals in the early stage of rabies may not have any signs, although they can still infect you if they bite you. The incubation period is the time from the animal bite to when signs appear. In rabies, it is usually 1-3 months. But it can last as long as several years. Once the virus reaches the brain or spinal cord, signs of the disease appear.

Extractions: Disease Index NJ InTouch What You Should Know About. . . Rabies How to Protect Yourself from Rabies Have Your Pet Vaccinated Against Rabies. Pets can become infected with rabies through contact with rabid wild animals. Because of this, it is important that your dog or cat have up-to-date rabies vaccinations. Because a current trend in the United States indicates that there has been a higher incidence of rabies in cats than in dogs in recent years, rabies vaccination is especially important for cats. Cats left outdoors to roam have a greater chance of exposure to rabid animals, but even indoor cats should be vaccinated, as occasionally they may get out and/or wild animals, such as bats or raccoons, may get into houses through open doors, windows, or uncapped chimneys. You should get your pet vaccinated at a private veterinarians office or at a free state/municipal-sponsored rabies clinic. Do Not Feed or Handle Wild Animals. Especially avoid contact with all bats, raccoons, skunks, groundhogs, and foxes. It is illegal in New Jersey to keep these wild animals as pets. Take measures to prevent raccoons or bats from entering homes, barns, garages, and other buildings. Store all trash or pet food kept outdoors in animal-resistant containers. Avoid Contact With Strays or Pets Other Than Your Own.

Extractions: The Facts About... Rabies The epidemiology of rabies Rabies is a virus infection to which all mammals, including man, are susceptible. It causes an acute and almost invariably fatal infection of the brain. During the illness there are disturbances of behaviour which in some affected species, such as dogs, cause them to bite other animals and man. As rabies virus may be present in saliva, bites and licks can transmit the virus. The incubation period in man is usually three to eight weeks, but may be as long as two years. Early symptoms may include numbness around the site of the bite, fever, headache, and general malaise. Later symptoms may include muscle spasms and hydrophobia. In many parts of the world (but not in the British Isles, some other parts of Western Europe and Australasia) rabies is found in terrestrial wildlife species. In Asia, Africa and Central and South America it also commonly infects domesticated animals such as dogs and cats, but rabies in domestic animals is very rare in Europe and North America. Bites from any of these animals can transmit the infection to other domestic and farm animals, and man. Bats can also transmit rabies and rabies-like viruses. In those parts of Western Europe where rabies is present in wildlife, it mainly infects foxes. Strenuous measures to control European fox rabies, for instance by vaccine left in baits, has reversed the movement of fox rabies towards the Channel ports, while strictly enforced quarantine regulations continue to prevent the introduction of other infected animals into Britain. In spite of its endemicity in foxes, rabies is rare in other animals in Western Europe, and extremely rare in man.

http://www.feralcat.com/acarafc.html

Extractions: Facts and Control Much of the U.S. is currently experiencing a wildlife rabies epidemic. Wildlife managers, animal control agencies and the animal protection community face important decisions on how best to control this disease. Feral cats are all too often caught in the middle of misguided efforts to protect human health by exterminating wild, feral, and stray animals. These efforts are not only cruel, but ineffective, costly, and difficult to implement. Alley Cat Allies promotes compassionate non-lethal solutions to problems resulting from human/wildlife interactions. Scientific evidence from around the world confirms the long term viability of non-lethal population and disease control through sterilization, birth control, and oral vaccination of wildlife. These methods represent an effective and humane approach to the rabies epidemic. Rabies and Humans Rabies is an acute viral infection of the central nervous system. Of all the zoonotic diseases,(1) it is one of the most feared and misunderstood even though its threat to humans in the U.S. is very small. Left untreated, rabies is deadly, producing excruciatingly painful symptoms and usually fatal. Media accounts also tend to sensationalize and reinforce popular misconceptions. Much unnecessary anxiety and fear could be relieved by understanding that rabies in the U.S. is primarily a disease of wildlife which can be controlled, and its threat to humans and companion animals minimized. Most cases are transmitted through the bite of an infected animal. All animal bites should be immediately flushed and cleansed with soap and water, then given prompt medical attention. Rabies is treatable when caught early, before symptoms appear. Exposure risk can be further minimized by following a few simple precautions.

Extractions: Update T he Wolf Dog Coalition submitted all wolf and wolf dog vaccination records we had acquired to the USDA in November of 1998. We were informed in January of 1999 that the USDA considered the data significant and sufficient to allow them to make a decision about vaccine approval for wolves and wolf dog crosses. In February, after a thorough analysis, USDA made the determination that all vaccines currently approved for dogs should also be approved for wolves and wolf dog crosses. The mechanism by which wolves and wolf dogs would gain vaccine approval was with an amendment to Title 9 Code of Federal Regulations. The amendment, in essence, declared that all vaccines are approved for any member of the species Canis lupus.
