What is the mode of transfer for rabies?

Rabies is transmitted by bite of rabid animals. Usually the carnivorous animals transmit the rabies. The virus is there in the saliva of the rabid animals.


Where is rabies formed?

Question is very simple! The answer is most difficult! The rabies virus forms from another rabies virus. The rabies virus must have evolved with the mammals. How the mammals evolved from the egg laying animals was a big question mark. Then two very interesting animals were found in Australia. Echidna and platypus. They are egg laying mammals. It was the great discovery to support the theory of Charles Darwin. Whether these two animals get rabies or not is not known to me. But I guess both can be infected with rabies virus artificially.

What is more likely to get rabies a possum or a fox?

Neither, if the animals are in Australia or New Zealand, where there is no rabies. Most possum species are found only in Australia and nearby countries. The possum is a completely different animal to the opossum, even though the term "possum" is often used in reference to opossums. Australia and New Zealand do not have rabies, so therefore it is quite safe to say that possums and foxes from either of these two countries cannot have rabies. As for North America: whilst it is believed that any warm blooded mammal can get rabies, opossums' body temperatures are too low to harbour rabies. However, the fox could certainly get rabies.
