Abstract

Nebraska is currently experiencing an outbreak of rabies in animals after many years with few cases. The last rabies outbreak in the state peaked in 1981 with nearly 200 animal cases diagnosed that year. After many years with few cases, many people have become complacent about this deadly disease. This NebFact describes rabies in animals and explains how people can protect themselves, as well as their pets or livestock from rabies exposure.
