"Bats rank third (behind raccoons and
skunks) in incidence of wildlife rabies
in the United States (Krebs et al. 1992).
In the last 20 years, however, there
have been more human rabies cases of
bat origin in the United States than of
any other wildlife group. Furthermore,
the disease in bats is more widely distributed
(in all 48 contiguous states in
1989) than in any other species. In
Canada, bats also rank third (behind
foxes and skunks) in the incidence of
wildlife rabies. Therefore, every bat
bite or contact must be considered a
potential exposure to rabies."

Oh good. Cause there was one flying around my room this afternoon. I mean, I think it'll probably be ok....but just as a precaution, Carol and I thought a necessary sleepover at Amy's was a good plan of action. Should be fun. Hope the bat enjoys the room.
