S.S.A.P. said:How many "rabid" cows have you had Oldtimer?
SSAP- We have only had one case about 40 years ago- altho there may have been more, because many times when you finally find the cow they are just a pile of bones- never know what killed them.... But I have seen and been called to several cases- know of one fellow that had 2 cases in one year....
And rabies is nothing to play around with- pretty contagious if you get near enough to be in contact with the saliva-- I've seen several people and even a whole family that had to go thru the old rabies shots series because they had not known what they had and tried to doctor the critter- and exposed themselves to the disease...
