Huronia humane society given education address Members of the Huronia Branch of the Ontario Humane Society receiv- ed an education in a few different areas when their annual meeting was held in Clinton on February 19. The first subject they were tutored in was rabies. Dr. Peter Wiley of the Clinton-Seaforth Veterinary Services was present at the meeting to discuss the deadly virus. "Rabies are on everybody's minds these days. It has reached epidemic proportions around here," Dr. Wiley began. "Canada is probably the worst country for rabies; the climate is right." He added that rabies like the cold, and if an animal were to die of the virus in the winter, the disease would stay in the animal until spring. The virus began its march across Canada in Alaska, he explained, and spread 100 to 200 miles every year. According to Dr. Wiely, the climate, added to a high car 2entra- tion of wildlife, people and pets in this area are all causes for the high number of rabies cases in this area. - .. Comparatively, a country such as Africa has very little rabies even though they have a lot of wildlife. This is again because of climate because if the virus is exposed to the sun it will last only two or three hours. "The rabies virus has a little scheme worked out; it can make animals vicious and give them the urge to bite. It's a great system for passing on the virus," Dr. Wiley noted, adding the disease is usally passed on through bites. Although many animals do become violent when afflicted with rabies, this is not the rule as there is a strain of the virus that makes an animal become -slow and lethargic before it gets convulsions and dies. The virus travels through the nerve cells- in an animal's body until it reaches the brain. Because of this 7,8,9c method of travel, it can be many months before a rabid animal shows signs of the disease. "If a cow -was nipped on the tip of the tail by a rabid fox, it could be six to nine months before it showed signs," said Dr. Wiley: "If animals do show signs, they'll be dead within 10 days time, but it's usually five to seven days." He said cats are about the worst animals when hit with -the virus. "Typically, a cat with rabies will hide in a ditch or on the side of the road, and when someone comes by they'll bite and scratch them, then take off." To control rabies, Dr. Wiley said 7,8,9c there are two things to do. The first is to prevent exposure by keeping dogs around the house and not letting cats out at night. The second is to make sure pets are vaccinated every year. Although some vaccines are said to last two or three years, he said vaccinations should be done yearly. si nme s wets t. i rmort<tntormatton -----'fo meet one of these -goals, Huron.. - call (519) 424-9998 or (519) 424-9093.

At par- ticipating clinics rabies shots will be provided to all pets for $6per animal on March 4 and March 7. "If you have a dog or cat, it chould be vaccinated," Dr. Wiley stressed. Although he has been vaccinated against rabies, he said he still feels uneasy when having to deal with an animal that might have rabies. . "It's quite a scary disease, really. I always get shivers up my backbone when I'm handling that type of animal," he said. As there is a new strain of rabies in the United States that affects an animal that hadn't previously been af- flicted with rabies, raccoons, Dr. Wiley was asked whether he thought the conditions in Huron County would worsen. - "Yes; it it gets into coons, it's go- ing to get worse yet," he concluded. Finances Following Dr. Wiley's presentation. Rick Koury, inspector for the Ontario Humane Society took the floor. After carrying out elections for this years board of directors and ex- ecutive, Mr. Koury, who works out of the head office of the OHS in New Market, discussed financial matters with the members. More specifically, he discussed why the year end had changed as well as why audits were carried out on the branch books. One of the main reasons audits were taking place, he said, was because the amount of money in the society's shelter accounts had gone from nothing in 1981 to $500,000 in 1988. - I Township of Tuckersmith Gravel Tender 1987 Contract No. 87 -001 -TT Sealed tenders, clearly marked as to contents will be received by the undersigned until 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday March 17th, 1987 for the crushing and delivery of ap- proximately 6,000 cubic yards of Granular A and -4,000 cubic yards stock pile. A breaker must be used. Tenders must be submitted on the Township Tender forms available from the undersigned. The lowest or any tender not necessarily accepted. All tenders subject to the ap- proval of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications. Doug Poulton, Road Superintendent, Egmondville, Ontario NOK 100 319-327-1838 or 319-482-8323 "The reason he wanted the books audited was because the auditors were saying, 'Wait a minute, you're getting reports from your branches, but they're not audited'. The auditors said this was fine before, but we didn't have half a million in shelter funds then," Mr. Koury explained. "The long and short of it is, the auditors said we now want the branch book formally audited." The year end was changed, he said; because the books were previously reaching the auditors around February, which is their prime time with income taxes. As it is their prime time, the work was taking longer to get back to the OHS. There is also a better chance the auditors will donate their work if it is not handled at this -busy time, he added. After covering these two area, Mr. Koury went on to the subject of pro- vincial funding. He -,explained that in 1982 the government did an assess- ment of the_OHS_andsaidif they -met --- certain criteria, such as hiring a chief inspector and providing better train- ing, they should receive $500,000 from the provincial government. "We have received, and still receive, since 1977, $85,000. We did a calculation based on 1977 dollars, and that $85,000 ii.now worth $45,500 spen- ding dollars," he said. This lack of funds caused the socie- ty to start winding down animal pro- tection services . in March of 1986. After suspending their agents work- ing in this field, they informed the solicitor general. He told them the police would pick up the slack. This, however, did not solve the pro- blem as when the police were faced with a cruelty to animal case, they found they didn't have money in their budget to cover it. He cited an incident where to free a few horses, a pony, two dogs and some geese it cost a police depart- ment $3,000 to $4,000 because of - veterinary costs and snow blowing 'costs to get at the animals.."They sud- denly realized the costs," he said. "We got together with them in May of 1986 and told them that seven days a week and 24 hours a day we'd have an inspector on call. We said we'll provide telephone back-up and physical assistance where possible," explained Mr. Koury. - A financial review carried out with the government revealed some startl- ing figures. "$1,079,000 a year is being spent in - Ontario right now on animal protec- tion services," Mr. Koury pointed out. He added that the study had a good - side. "This exercise we had with the government was a very, very fruitful one. If nothing else is showed the governmentthat we're doing a good job in very bad circumstance." Mr. Koury began his presentation - on this subject by explaining exactly - .Ohy th Troronto Humane Society is now running into problems. In 1986 they had their annual meeting, and a proxy vote was held. This election resulted in, effectively, four people running the organization, one of whom was from Washington. After a falling out with the other members, the Washington member left. "There are now three people run- ning the Toronto society of 3,000 members," he pointed out, adding that these three could sell off all the society's holdings, because they are all the signers.This resulted in some problems for the OHS, as Mr. Koury stated, "The general public has the misconception that the Toronto and Ontario Humane Society are the same thing." The problems continued with misin- formation on pound seizures, where animals are taken from a pound as soon as they are seized for scientific experimentation. RABIES PREVENTION WHY? One of the most effective ways to prevent human contact to rabid animals over nearly the past half century has been the immunization of family pets.
