Rabies???

[Exnavydiver]

Day before yesterday I was cruising this forum and Escapees and saw somewhere something about a skunk rabies out break out west somewhere. spent most of this evening trying to find it. No luck so far so am asking if anybody else saw the post. I know that these happen periodically and we had one back in Wi. a few years ago. So in the words of Ben Stein: "Anyone? Anyone? Anyone?"

According to CDC the last reported case was 1/10/2008 in SC from a kitten. There is the web site with a audio clip on it.
