What happens if you get Rabies?

There's no set way to tell if a bat that bites you has rabies. While only 0.05% of all bats actually have rabies, it is still a fatal virus and you should never take chances. If you ever handle a bat, go to the hospital and get checked as soon as possible. Bat bites are slight and can often be overlooked, so you may have been bitten without realizing it. Always get yourself checked out if you are bitten by any strange mammal- rabies is 100% fatal, so it's better to be safe than sorry.
