Best Answer

Any warm blooded animal can carry rabies and that includes humans. There are ways to help to prevent rabies: vaccinating dogs, cats, rabbits, and ferrets against rabies, keeping pets under supervision, not handling wild animals or strays and contacting an animal control officer if you see a wild animal or a stray, especially if the animal is acting strangely.
If bitten by an animal, washing the wound with soap and water for 10 to 15 minutes and contacting a healthcare provider to determine if post-exposure prophylaxis is required.
Rabies used to be called hydrophobia which means fear of water because an animal would try to drink but then would stop. The animal would also 'drool'. This was all caused by the fact that the throat would close up and the animal could not drink even if it wanted to.

Yes. If the coyote has a rabies, dog will get it. (You have to presume that coyote has got rabies.) Unless and until dog has received proper anti-rabies vaccination. Your Vet may give additional does of anti-rabies vaccine to the dog or may give full course of anti-rabies vaccines to non-immunized dog.

No. All of them do not carry rabies. If all of them carry rabies, all of them would die and there will be no raccoons.

Any mammal can carry rabies and the disease has been observed in coyotes. Most coyotes do not have rabies. A animal with rabies symptoms can be expected to die within a few days.

I think rabies has been around for about 4,000 years. Or at least dating back to at least the ancient Greeks and Romans. (The number one animal infected with rabies was Racoons, which somewhere in the 70s 80s or 90s ranged from at least 1,800 racoons that year) Hope I helped. =D I am currently writing a research paper on rabies and it said something about rabies being around for quite a while.
