Rabies in a Maryland Groundhog




RABIES IS ENDEMIC in this area.  It’s most often found in the raccoon population, but also in feral cats, bats, and skunks.  

Any mammal can carry rabieseven a groundhog — though opossums have such a low body temperature that after an initial exposure the virus dies out fairly quickly.
