Bats are also known to be carriers. Actually this makes them more dangerous than dogs - because Bats can fly considerable distances !

What animals can give a person rabies?

As rabies is a virus, any mammal can technically have and/or carry rabies. Certain species such as opossums, which have too low a body temperature to harbour the virus, are extremely low risk. The hyena is immune to it, but can still carry it.Birds, insects, amphibians and reptiles cannot carry the virus. High risk carriers are mammals of the Carnivora group, e.g. cats and their relatives, dogs and their relatives, bears, otters, skunks, weasels, badgers, and raccoons, and bats.As a general rule, smaller rodents can carry the virus but they are low risk carriers. According to the weblink below, "In North America rabies occurs primarily in skunks, raccoons, foxes and bats. In some areas these wild animals infect domestic cats, dogs, and livestock."In countries which are completely free of rabies, such as Australia and New Zealand, the virus is no threat at all. There is currently no chance of contracting rabies from any animal in these countries.Note: There is further information on the effects of rabies on people on the second related weblink below.
