Naturally speaking
By Steve Cooke
'Rabies! The word strikes fear into the hearts
of many people, and for just reason. My 1955
Webster's Dictionary defines rabies as -
Hydrophobia, an infectious disease of small
animals, particularly dogs, believed to -be caused
by a virus transmitted to man by the bite of in-
fected animals and invariably proving fatal
unless the Pasteur treatment ,is instituted in the
incubation period. That's quite a mouthful, and
somewhat outdated, but the basics are still true.
Rabies can kill quite easily and it's only sur-
prising that more cases are not reported each
year.
Rabies is basically a smallanimal disease
with dogs and foxes being the most publicized -
carriers. Skunks are -probably the most comm
carriers, but even cattle and horses have been
known to contact the disease.
In my opinion, racoons are probably the most
dangerous spreaders of the disease. Why? All too
often in Walt Disney or similar movies, the good
old racoon is portrayed as a friendly,
mischievous,bumbling character who is always
making friends with small 'boys or &d men.
Naturally, if a youngster has just seen one of
these movies, and just happens across a coon, he
will try to make friends and play with it.
In real life, the only way he will get close
enough to touch a wild racoon is if that animal is
sick.
The young of animals, especially something
like a whitetail deer fawn is twice as dangerous.
These animals, not being predators, usually,
display no aggressive attitude and, therefore,
give no outward warning at all.
Dogs are generally the recipients of most
public, abuse, only because they are
domesticated and in constant contact with
people. Anyone seeing the symptoms of rabies in
a dog or other pet - usually aggressive behavior,
foaming at the mouth, unsteady or erratic
movement, or a definite aversion to water -
should report the animal to local authorities at
once.
Anyone who owns a pet and does not have it
vaccinated against 'rabies on .aregular basis
should be subjected to,the painful series of shots
that are required to combat the disease. Perhaps
if they went through it themselves, they wouldn't
wait till their dog or cat bit someone else before
deciding preventive medicine is best.
As I said before, rabies can be a killer. Modern
medicine has reduced the possibility 'of death
from the disease, but the chance is always there.
Rabies is one of nature's horrible ways of dealing
with population explosions and will probably
always be with us. Therefore, when you're out in
the bush, or even around town, use a little
common sense and natural caution when it
comes to dealing with animals.
Too fat? Too '
thin ? Too tired?
Too often? Do
something for
somebody.. .
Your body!
Fitness is fun.
Try some.
