Rabies is an endemic disease of the vampire bats form South America. The infected bat bites the victim. The carnivorous animals transmits the infection to other animals, before it dies of rabies. Other animals get the rabies after some days and in turn transmit the infection further. This cycle goes on. This is the usual cycle for most of he pathogenic organisms. They do not kill all the hosts. Otherwise the pathogenic organisms will also disappear.
