As a result, they tend to behave bizarrely and often aggressively, increasing the chances that they will bite another animal or a person and transmit the disease. </p><p>In addition to irrational aggression, the virus can induce hydrophobia ("fear of water")—wherein attempts to drink water or swallow cause painful spasms of the muscles in the throat or <a href="/wiki/Larynx" title="Larynx">larynx</a>—and an increase in saliva production. This aids the likelihood of transmission, as the virus multiplies and accumulates in the <a href="/wiki/Salivary_gland" title="Salivary gland">salivary glands</a> and is transmitted primarily through biting.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The accumulation of saliva can sometimes create a "foaming at the mouth" effect, which is commonly associated with rabies in animals in the public perception and in popular culture;<sup id="cite_ref-Wilson,_Rohde,_Oertli_&_Willoughby_Jr._2019_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Wilson,_Rohde,_Oertli_&_Willoughby_Jr._2019-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> however, rabies does not always present as such, and may be carried without typical symptoms being displayed.<sup id="cite_ref-Wilson,_Rohde,_Oertli_&_Willoughby_Jr._2019_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Wilson,_Rohde,_Oertli_&_Willoughby_Jr._2019-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Most cases of humans contracting rabies from infected animals are in developing nations.

Outwardly, it is characterized by behavioral changes such as restlessness, deep fatigue, and pain indications such as self-biting or itching.

Today, wolf bites can be treated, but the severity of rabid wolf attacks can sometimes result in outright death, or a bite near the head will make the disease act too fast for the treatment to take effect.<sup id="cite_ref-Attacks_42-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Attacks-42"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>42<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Rabid attacks tend to cluster in winter and spring. With the reduction of rabies in Europe and North America, few rabid wolf attacks have been recorded, though some still occur annually in the Middle East. Rabid attacks can be distinguished from predatory attacks by the fact that rabid wolves limit themselves to biting their victims rather than consuming them. Plus, the timespan of predatory attacks can sometimes last for months or years, as opposed to rabid attacks which end usually after a fortnight. Victims of rabid wolves are usually attacked around the head and neck in a sustained manner.<sup id="cite_ref-Attacks_42-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Attacks-42"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>42<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Asian_elephants">Asian elephants</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rabies_in_animals&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Asian elephants"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>One of the largest land mammals on the continent of Asia, these <a href="/wiki/Elephants" class="mw-redirect" title="Elephants">elephants</a> typically live in India, Indonesia, Nepal, and Cambodia: countries that have ongoing rabies epidemics. About 1.4% of these elephants die from rabies, most of these cases come from bites/attacks from wild dogs. When left untreated, the mammal can suffer from Paralytic(dumb) rabies and their limbs slowly begin to paralyze. With that, hunger decreases, bowel movements begin to cease, and the elephant's behavior can begin to change. After five days, the animal dies. When treated, elephants receive the 'equine tetanus toxoid' annually. These vaccinated elephants can develop a humoral immune response and combat the deadly symptoms of the rabies virus.<sup id="cite_ref-43" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-43"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>43<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Other_placental_mammals">Other placental mammals</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rabies_in_animals&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: Other placental mammals"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The most commonly infected terrestrial animals in the United States are <a href="/wiki/Raccoon" title="Raccoon">raccoons</a>, <a href="/wiki/Skunk" title="Skunk">skunks</a>, <a href="/wiki/Fox" title="Fox">foxes</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Coyote" title="Coyote">coyotes</a>.

The <a href="/wiki/Yellow_mongoose" title="Yellow mongoose">yellow mongoose</a>, native to South Africa, has been known to asymptomatically carry the rabies virus for several years. In a study performed in 1993, several major outbreaks in adjacent farms over the course of 11 years were all traced to a single population.<sup id="cite_ref-45" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-45"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>45<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The long-dormant phase of this virus makes <a href="/wiki/Horizontal_gene_transfer" title="Horizontal gene transfer">horizontal transfer</a> possible in this stage through breeding and typical injuries from territory fights. It is unknown what triggers the emergence of the virus when it does enter the prodromal stage, but it is hypothesized to be caused by stressors such as lack of food or other stressors in heavily populated areas. Complicating this further is the difficulty in testing for rabies before death, as it takes up cells around the brainstem and in the nerves and saliva. </p><p>In the same geographic region, the <a href="/wiki/Greater_kudu" title="Greater kudu">greater kudu</a>, a species of antelope in Namibia, have also suffered enormous outbreaks of rabies in their populations.

During the first epidemic from 1997 to 1996, as much as 20% of the population succumbed to the disease; phylogenetic analyses likewise proved that the rapid spread was largely by horizontal transfer. Kudu are a large factor in the agriculture and economy of Namibia, but their status as wildlife makes prevention of the disease much more difficult.<sup id="cite_ref-46" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-46"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>46<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Marsupial_and_monotreme_mammals">Marsupial and monotreme mammals</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rabies_in_animals&action=edit&section=18" title="Edit section: Marsupial and monotreme mammals"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The <a href="/wiki/Virginia_opossum" title="Virginia opossum">Virginia opossum</a> (a marsupial, unlike the other mammals named above, which are all <a href="/wiki/Eutherians" class="mw-redirect" title="Eutherians">eutherians</a>/<a href="/wiki/Placental" class="mw-redirect" title="Placental">placental</a>), has a lower internal body temperature than the rabies virus prefers and therefore is resistant but not immune to rabies.<sup id="cite_ref-47" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-47"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="/wiki/Marsupials" class="mw-redirect" title="Marsupials">Marsupials</a>, along with <a href="/wiki/Monotremes" class="mw-redirect" title="Monotremes">monotremes</a> (<a href="/wiki/Platypuses" class="mw-redirect" title="Platypuses">platypuses</a> and <a href="/wiki/Echidnas" class="mw-redirect" title="Echidnas">echidnas</a>), typically have lower body temperatures than similarly sized eutherians.<sup id="cite_ref-48" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-48"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Birds">Birds</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rabies_in_animals&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section: Birds"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Bird" title="Bird">Birds</a> were first artificially infected with rabies in 1884, with work being done on a large variety of species including <a href="/wiki/Domestic_fowl" class="mw-redirect" title="Domestic fowl">domestic fowl</a> and <a href="/wiki/Domestic_pigeon" title="Domestic pigeon">pigeons</a>.
