In this workshop, we will discuss rabies from a clinical viewpoint, examining how the virus is transmitted, its pathway through the body, symptoms in infected wildlife, and pre- and post-exposure protocols. We must understand this deadly disease and how to protect ourselves while caring for rabies vector species in rehabilitation, and be knowledgeable enough to separate the myths from the facts when educating the public about wildlife issues.
