Rabies alert: wild fox tests positive in Ukiah.

Rabies is always fatal if not treated. It is carried by a wide variety of wild and domesticated animals and can be transmitted through a bite or by coming in contact with the saliva of an infected animal. Animals infected with rabies may begin to exhibit strange or aggressive behavior. Some behavioral signs of rabies infection include “staggering, restlessness, aggression, a change of the tone of their barks or growls, or choking.”

Bats, skunks, foxes, raccoons, and bobcats are some of the wild animals that commonly carry rabies.
