Have you ever been able to stroke a wild forest beast?

- In no case should not do this neither an adult or the more child! - exclaims the leading expert expert of the Territorial Department of Rospotrebnadzor Elena Zabayeva.

So, this year in the area of \u200b\u200bDSU city, trying to drive a red beautiful beauty, whether it stroked her, whether the gloves trembled on the muzzle. Installing healthy or sick, this animal did not have any opportunity, since the fox did not wait for the competent authority so that they would have taken from her appropriate analyzes, and went in an unknown direction. In February, Lisa ran into the village of Central to one of the castings. Kumushka shot - expertise confirmed: rabies. From the seventh February, a quarantine was introduced on the territory of the village.

Most often foxes and raccoon dogs become messengers, the main "menu" of which are rodents. Any hunter or a person who, for various reasons, has to be in the forest, in the field, the river, the lake, will say that seeing the victor's wild animals is very difficult. The beast, as a rule, will be the first to be the presence of a person, and himself will shut or leave. Therefore, the meeting should be alerted with him. Especially if the animal does not go or head for you. In this case, you may not doubt - before you a sick beast!

Framing can bring to the house and a cat, often leaving "hunting" from housing for a distance of three or five kilometers, and an unacted dog. Annual panning vaccinationswhich, by the way, conduct veterinarians for free, the content of dogs in the aviary or on the leash abruptly reduce the possibility of infection of their owners.

Patient with rabies Animal changes dramatically: evil - becomes unusually calm or cowardly, donate, and affectionate - capricious, irritable, may not obey the owner. Typically, such animals observed abundant salivation (foam of mouth). For violent form of rabies A dog, for example, breaks off from the chain, swallows inedible objects, attacks all the oncoming animals and people.

A man is infected with rabies through contacts with a sick wild or pet: sufficiently drops of saliva, scratches, abrasions, sick beast bite. If you do not accept the appropriate security measures, it will inevitably lead to a fatal outcome for a person.

What to do in the event of a threat to the spread of rabies, who to report on the appearance of a wild animal in the settlement? Call by phone 112!

If you contacted a sick animal or there is a suspicion that it hurts, contact the doctors and veterinarians immediately.

PS. While the material was preparing for printing, last Saturday, the forest guest visited Zavodoukovsk again: in the area Glazunovo passed the groceries along the school street, went to the pavement, then through the river river. As a chanterelle feels, with which dog "Hello", where it goes - unknown.

On March 20, on the road leading to the MTM, the village of Central, discovered a dead fox. Vigilant residents reported finding veterinarians, those in turn conducted disinfection, selected material for research. Examination established - Fox is ill.

How to determine mad fox or not. If it sick with rabies, how much will stretch. Whether she eats, there is always an attack. For people?

1. she becomes not typical of it: caresses. Not afraid of man
   slyunomy abundant
   dangerous very
   
   people have rabies incurable
2. patient with rabies fox does not attack people, on the contrary she will cease them afraid, expands themselves as a homemade cat
3. Angry, with foam from mouth, shake like a patient
4. works it so
   - It is very difficult to determine in the glance, it is usually wrong behavior, excessive aggression or excessive friendliness
   - If the virus is in a saliva (that is, the bite contamination is dangerous) then the animal for more than 10 days does not usually live (therefore in the cell and observe)
   but usually do not wait, send their heads to histological examination (if the animal is small, then it is better than the whole), otherwise you can get off the head to get infected, the microscope detect special inclusions that appear only when rabies
   - There will rather not be, but no one can say for sure
   - It may not be necessary, maybe it can be very friendly to people (but if the virus is already in saliva, it is possible from such friendship and skates)
   and finally, if it was at least some kind of contact, stroked, we wore, God forbid each other))) I do not postpone any minutes by running in the trauma parcel. Here as Lenin said .. Death Death Like (literally)
5. Symptoms: 1st stage: loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea or constipation, depression, irritability, squint, different pupil size; 2nd: over-excitation, aggression, perverted appetite (rags, stones), paralysis of larynx, hoarse bark, abundant salivation; 3rd: paralysis and death of the animal! ! The virus is mortals for a person, through not damaged skin - does not penetrate, the bite is dangerous! ! Incubation period - from 2 to 8 weeks! ! Diagnosis .. Damage doctors !!!
6. In general, the fox rabies will be visible in its behavior immediately. She nibbles itself starting from the tail. In general, a terrible picture. And in general, it is impossible to feed the fox with swine meat in any way. My parents worked on the Foxheferma therefore saw these horrors.
7. framing is developing in a hidden form about a week, then all the above signs appear. After that, the animal lives only 3-4 days.
8. When the younger native broke the dog, doctors, making his son one injection, ordered to watch the pupil for 20 days. I think with the fox the same.
9. i have a fox's wife, terribly mad but nothing, eats and drinks how healthy and people rushes
10. Mad fox is not afraid of a man, allows himself to stroke himself, but it sounds completely unexpectedly clinging to the Mr. Hand. Checking for rabies is possible on the analysis of the blood of fox. I do not advise you to check on the hydrophoids - invite the eats and veterinarian.

    dangerous very
    people are better not to touch her, especially to follow, so that saliva does not get on the wounds.
    people have rabies incurable

Since the beginning of the year, 96 cases of animal rabies were registered in Udmurtia. It is 77% more than last year (then it was only 54). In 80% of cases, wild animals are sick with rabies. Most often it is foxes. In the past 10 years, more than 50% of the positive cases of rabies are registered annually.

Fox in Udmurtia is more than the rest of the wild animals. Because their number is not regulated in any way, despite the fact that they are very prolific. Therefore, frantic faces are more than all other wild animals. In addition, the disease "rabies" is characteristically more for carnivorous and omnivorous animals. And, for example, hares or moose, which in our republic is also a lot, - herbivores, - said specialists of the State of Vets in Udmurtia.

How to distinguish mad fox from normal

Basic Fox Food is mice. And rodents settle close to people, as there is more food. Therefore, foxes and go to settlements. Distinguish a mad fox from healthy easily. Normal fox or any wild animal will never fit close to man. But there are other signs, more obvious.

You need to fear both too aggressive animals and unusually affectionate. And in any case, if the animal approached you, it means that it hurts rabies, "veterinarians explain. - Another obvious sign - a sick animal, as a rule, goes, perezding, from the mouth he flows saliva. This is due to the fact that during rabies the throat is paralyzed, the lower jaw disperses, and the beast cannot swallow. A peculiar foam of mouth can also go beyond and because the mad animal can not drink because of paralysis and feel thirst.

A person can become infected with a sick animal if it bites it or scratches. The virus enters the human body through the saliva of a mad animal. Clamps on hand brushes are extremely dangerous - in this case, the incubation period can be reduced to 5 days. So the virus, moving along the nervous ways, falls in the spinal and brain, causing eminoction cells. If infection occurred through legs, the incubation period increases significantly. There were cases when the virus was not manifested during the year and more. It is worth noting that children develop faster than adults.

The first signs of rabies in humans can not appear immediately

Frenzy is considered an incurable disease. When signs of illness begins to manifest themselves to the infected person, save him unlikely. If the first vaccination is made more than 14 days, then the chances of survival are reduced to zero.

When a person appears the first signs of the disease, it will be too late. It begins the waterproof, he can not swallow and generally pushes water. But this is an irreversible process. These first signs may not appear immediately. It all depends on immunity. If he is strong, can manifest itself in a month, and if weak - in a week, - warn in the State of Udmurtia veterinary medicine.

The vaccination course must be immediately started in the following cases:

If a person suffered from wildlife bites;

When the animal saliva, which has suspicious behavior, got into the skin of a person;

If there were contacts with animals that are considered infected.

After the bite or the contact with the possibly dangerous animal, the doctors strongly recommend a person during the first night to apply for help and start vaccination against rabies. The course is 6 vaccinations: in the first day, for 3, 7, 14 and 30th days, some patients prescribe additional injection on the 90th day. If the bite was especially dangerous (in the neck, head, or with abundant bleeding), and the likelihood that the animal is infected, also recommended to undergo an anti-liblobic immunoglobulin course, to start the injection of which should also be in the first day after contact with animals, the maximum term - Within 3 days after the bite.

The level of modern medicine made it possible to achieve such results that vaccination in 96-98% of cases is able to prevent the disease, however, people continue to die. This happens for the reason that many do not consider it necessary to seek help after animal bites, considering it only scratching, and insufficient reasons for excitement. But it should be borne in mind that even a pet can be infected with rabies if he had a random contact with street animals.

In Udmurtia, for a long time, specialists were not engaged in the question of rabies. Therefore, it is so common in us. In other, more developed countries, with rabies have already coped with vaccination. And we have very large areas, we cannot afford such a mass vaccination, as in Europe, for example. Therefore, we have rabies, "experts summed up.

In Izhevsk this year, 2 cases of rabies were recorded - this is a fox and a homeless dog. In total, 252 people were in Udmurtia with patients with sick animals. All of them pass prophylactic treatment. The diagnosis of "rabies", fortunately, not one of them.

Knock!

If, after the bite of an animal, in a timely manner to seek medical attention and take a vaccination course, then any consequences can be avoided at least in 96% of cases. But if a person did not apply to the doctor within 4 days after the appearance of the first symptoms, the likelihood that he will survive - 50%. If a person began to undergo a vaccination course only on the 20th day, the probability of his death is 100%.

Fox rabies are extremely common. This is due to the peculiarities of their lifestyle. Quite often, these animals become perpetrators of human infection. Even if people are infected with this deadly disease from a cat or dog, the primary source of infection is often a fox. After all, pets often get a virus when colliding with wild animals. Each person needs to be aware of the manifestations of this disease in Lisits. This is especially necessary to those people who spend a lot of time in the forest, engage in hunting or harvesting mushrooms. In addition, patients with foxes are often visible to settlements and can close to the person.

What is rabies

Framing is one of the most dangerous and fatal diseases that animals and people suffer. Pathology causes a virus (Rabies Virus), which affects the central nervous system. It raises irreversible changes in the brain, which always lead to a fatal outcome.

It is important to remember that the incubation period in this disease can be quite lengthy. It ranges from 10 days to 3 months. Symptoms of the disease in humans can be divided into several stages:

1. Often the disease begins with pain in the field of bite, even if the wound has already healed. Then there is a general ailment, a slight increase in temperature, anxiety, insomnia.
2. Study stage. A person has severe lights and sharp sounds. A convulsions that increase from any irritants appear. Mental disorders are noted: nonsense, hallucinations, sometimes increased aggression. The enhanced separation of saliva is observed.
3. Palsy period. The patient paralyzes the muscles of the eyelids, cheekbones and legs. A taste perversion may be celebrated when a person eats unbearable items. At this stage, the disease ends with death due to the paralysis of breathing.

Modern medicine does not have preparations from rabies. Save the life of a person can only vaccine, but it is effective only in the first 10 days after the bite. At the stage of the appearance of the first signs of rabies, it is impossible to help the patient.

Why foxes often sick rabies

Fox rabies occurs quite often. This is due to the method of feeding animals. Foxes eat small rodents who are often carriers of rabies virus. Infection occurs in an alimentary way through the stomach. People are never infected in this way. However, for animals, this path of transmitting the virus is quite possible.

In addition, the petty rodent can bite the fox, protecting from it. In this case, the virus is transmitted to the most common way - through saliva. Sometimes foxes are attacked larger predators and are infected with bite. After all, it is very easy to detect mink fox, and animals under the influence of the virus become aggressive.

Path transmission paths

From fox to man? Infection is possible only when the patient's saliva is in contact with blood. Most often it happens when bite. Infection is also possible when saliva hit on the skin with small wounds and when scratching. There are no other infection methods.

Foxes can be indirect perpetrators of human disease with rabies. Sick beasts often attack stray dogs and cats, which subsequently infect people. Attack of a mad fox can be subjected to hunting dog. In this case, the owner risks infected from his pet. Therefore, it is very important in time to vaccinate dogs from this dangerous disease.

Seasonal periods of the disease

The high incidence of rabies in the fox is noted in the following periods:

1. From February to April. During this period, there is always a large outbreak of the disease. This is due to the fact that the in the spring the Lisits takes place. Between males often arise fights. Animals make each other bites and transmit the virus.
2. In December. In winter, the fox population increases at the expense of young individuals. This leads to a small outbreak of rabies.

After such periods, the incidence decreases somewhat, as many foxes die from rabies. But this does not exclude the possibility of infection. Danger to get a virus from the fox exists in any season.

Exterior view of mad fox

How to determine rabies in fox in appearance? Make it is quite difficult. The appearance of the sick animal may not have any obvious features, and at first glance it seems that the fox is healthy. However, you can notice some external signs of rabies in fox:

1. Abundant salivation with the separation of foam and the rolled tongue. These symptoms are noted in the rapid stage of the disease and are often accompanied by the aggression of the beast.
2. Sweetness gait. Due to the lesion of the brain in the patient of the animal, the coordination of movements is disturbed.
3. Squint, muddy look, swelling fruit. These signs are difficult to notice, since it is better not to approach the sick animal.
4. Exhaustion. This feature is not specific to rabies. Fox may also go for other reasons.

In the future, due to the developing paralysis, the animal refuse limbs. However, in this state, the beast can no longer lead an active lifestyle and attack a person. This is the final stage of rabies in the fox. Photo of the sick animal can be seen below.

Features of the patient's behavior

It is much easier to determine the disease on the behavior of the fox. Pathology strongly affects the psyche and the woves of the beast.

How does Fox beanle manifest? First of all, the animal loses the instinct of self-preservation. It ceases to fear a person. A healthy fox is never approaching people and their housing. Animal, sick with rabies, freely comes to a person. Often infected foxes enter the settlements. This behavior is not typical for healthy animals.

With the violent form of rabies, the animal becomes aggressive. Fox is getting hoarse voice. In this state, beasts often attack people and animals.

However, no less dangerous, and when the disease occurs in a quiet form. In this case, the animal looks calm and somewhat sluggish. It can come to a person without feeding any signs of aggression, and bite.

Unnatural storm is one of the symptoms of rabies in the foxes flowing in a quiet form. An animal comes up to a person and begins to lick his hands. This may follow a sudden bite. It should be remembered that the fox is a wild beast, and affectionate behavior is uncharacteristic for such an animal.

Fox rabies are a cunning disease. After all, the animal becomes contagious even during the incubation period, when there are no signs of pathology. Therefore, with any bite, the fox needs to make rage vaccination as soon as possible.

How to behave when meeting with a sick fox

What if you had to face a sick animal? It is necessary to behave extremely careful not to provoke an attack and bite of the fox:

1. You need to immediately stop and do not make sharp movements.
2. You can not turn your back to the animal and run away. Otherwise, the fox will go to the pursuit and will attack the back.
3. You can not smile beast. When a person reveals his teeth, animals take it for grin.
4. You should not show the animal that you were frightened.
5. You need to slowly leave the fox back back.
6. If the fox shows aggression and is going to attack, then it is necessary to protect the throat area.
7. If you can, then you need to hide from the beast in any room or climb on the tree.
8. If the Lisica managed to knock you down from the legs, then you need to lie on the stomach and do not move. It is necessary to cover the neck with your hands, and the face is elbows. The bites in these parts of the body are most dangerous.

What to do with a bite

With the bite of the fox, it is necessary to urgently treat the damaged place. Winal need to rinse with water with soap or hydrogen peroxide solution. Then you need to lubricate the place of the bite of iodine and be stalked. The same measures are needed if the bite was not, but the animal saliva got to your skin.

Next, you need to immediately contact the nearest trauma and take a vaccination rate from rabies. Doctors believe that it is best to start making vaccinations in the first three days after the bite. The course of prevention consists of six injections. In no case do not let the timing of the next introduction of the vaccine and do not use alcohol during vaccinations. This will help you to escape from the deadly disease.

Frenzy (hydrophobia) - acute viral mammalian disease flowing with a heavy damage to the nervous system, as a rule, with a fatalistic. A man can be infected with rabies from animals. (, Prevention of messenger)
Frenzy is a natural focal infection. In nature, the rabies virus is maintained mainly among the animals of the family of dog - wolves, foxes, sacking, raccoon dogs, passing through the bite, scratching, stalking from a sick animal to healthy. In recent years, information has appeared on the possibility of infection from the bites of volatile mice.
Frash animals leave their flocks and habitats. Overcoming distances in several tens of kilometers per day, they can transfer infection on the territory, earlier from it are free, run into settlements, where people or pets can bite.
Wild animals disease occurs mainly with the predominance of excitement. A characteristic sign of rabies wild animals is a loss of fear of man. For example, mad wolves in a state of starting excitement are attacked on the herd of animals, run into populated points, thrown on people.
Special danger represent sick foxes, which, unlike other animals, often do not show aggressiveness, and are done with trustless, affectionate, enter the territory of settlements, they are easy to go to people in hand. Attempting to shelter, leaving such an animal, as well as remove the skin with easily mining, can have tragic consequences.
The dog in the first days of the disease reluctantly responds to the call of the owner, trying to go to some dark, remote place, then an excitement comes. She barks without any reason, grabs the mouth of the air, refuses the usual food, swallows inedible items: stones, chips, nails, garbage. During this period, the dog is done very irritable, especially at the sight of cats and other dogs, tries to leave home or tear away from the binding. In a state of excitation, it can run a day to 50 km, attacked people, dogs, farm animals, and even on predatory animals. The excitation period lasts 3-4 days and passes into the paralysis stage. At the same time, the animal is trying to move, relying on the front limbs that it is erroneously taken for injury. Then the paralysis of the whole body comes, and on the 6th - 10th day of the disease, the animal dies.
In cats, the disease begins with a sudden excitation that goes into a state of emergency surfaction. Throwing people, they usually bite in the face. The sick cat eats a different garbage, can break his kittens, attack other animals, including dogs. There are cases when, in conditions of communal apartments and a densely populated terrain, one mad cat could snack up to 100 people. Paralysis comes suddenly, on the 2nd - 4th day the animal dies.
In farm animals, periods of excitation are also observed, characterized by aggressiveness, replacing with paralysis with subsequent death.
Human disease has a hidden period from 12 days to 1 year, and then the period of initiation and paralysis stage comes. At first, the patient appears an unpleasant sensation in the field of bite or shifting (burning, pulling pain, itching, increased skin sensitivity), although the wound has already healed, unfortunate anxiety, fear, depression, insomnia. Then the hydrophobia (water fear) occurs, which manifests itself in the fact that when trying to drink, and in the future, only when approaching the lips of a glass with water, the patient comes a convulsive contraction of the muscles of the pharynx and larynx, breathing becomes noisy in the form of short convulsive breaths; A short respiratory stop is possible. Cramps may arise from the blow in the face of the jet of air. The salivation is increased, the patient cannot swallow saliva and often spars out. The excitement increases, visual and auditory hallucinations appear, often threatening character. Sometimes attacks of violence with aggressive actions occur. After 2-3 days, the excitation is replaced by paralymps of the muscles of the limbs, language, faces. Death comes as a result of the defeat of vital centers, the patient usually dies in full consciousness, clearly imagining the tragedy of its position.
Man's disease with rabies - the phenomenon is quite rare. On average, 40 - 70 people die from rabies annually in Russia. At the same time, in the assistance (immunization after contact with suspicious animal rabies) is about half a million people, which speaks of a high risk of infection. The cause of people's disease In most cases is the ignorance of victims of infections - they either do not pay for medical care after contact with suspicious animals, or are also addressed too late, or unimpressive interrupt vaccinations.
The source of infection in most cases are dogs, mostly non-television, less often - cats, foxes and wolves.
The most reliable guarantee from infection with rabies is to eliminate the risk of obtaining bite, i.e. Streamlining Pets, first of all cats and dogs. Compliance with the rules for the content of dogs and cats is the basis for the prevention of rabies. Dogs located on the streets and other public places without an accompanying person, regardless of breed and destination (including those having a collar with a number of sign), as well as non-television cats are subject to catch with special teams.
If the pet has signs of difficult swallowing, you should immediately contact the veterinarian. Often the danger of infection is subject to persons trying to extract the "bone" of such an animal, since the difficulties of swallowing are one of the symptoms of the beginning of the disease.
In the event of a bite, scratching, the suffering of any warm-blooded animal, the victim should immediately contact the traumatological point or surgical office. The question of the severity of damage and the need for the appointment of vaccination is solved by the doctor.
Rabies - incurable disease. However, this does not mean that the person whom the animal whipped or suspiciously bited for this infection must definitely die. Fence with rabies can be warned.
In 1885, the French scientist Louis Pastext developed and applied the method of vaccination against rabies. Its essence is as follows: if a person, bited by a sick animal, introduce several times a vaccine from a weakened virus (unable to cause a disease), then immunity is created earlier than the disease virus can spread from the place of bite to the central nervous system. Simultaneously with the anti-execution vaccine, anti-library is introduced (from the Latin word Rabies - rabies) gamma globulin, a drug containing antibodies against rabies virus. With the timely use of these drugs and compliance with the regime appointed by the doctor at the time of vaccinations, complete protection against rabies is guaranteed even when biteing is obviously sick with rabies animals.
