hyenas are not immune to rabies
All mammals can be affected by rabies. Although most rodents are immune to the disease, and do not carry it.
They have become immune to rabies over time because they evolved that way. Since they come in contact with it so much they would have died off if they did not evolve.
Good question. This one goes both ways. If your dog got the rabies shot for the first time, the immune system might not be immune to it yet, so yes, possible. If your dog has had the rabies vaccine and it's booster, yes, dogs need booster's too, well then his immune system recognizes it, and fights it off!
There has never been a case of squirrel rabies in the US. Small rodents like squirrels do not appear to get or transmit rabies.
All animals can carry rabies, except for the hyena, which is immune to it, but can still carry it.
no the immune system of a turtle does not allow for it to become rabid or spread rabies.
RABIES
Scavengers, such as buzzards, komoto dragons, and hyenas are immune to many of the food borne illnesses because of certain enzymes in their digestive systems that people and many other animals do not have.
It affects the host by attacking its immune system, then the host counter acts the disease with pure skill :D
There are many animals that cannot carry the rabies virus, including birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish and invertebrates. Only mammals can carry the rabies virus; of these, the least likely to carry the rabies virus would be the marine mammals.
You can vaccinate the mother. The babies need to be at least 4 monhts old before their immune system can handle a Rabies vaccine. Do not vaccinate a pregnant animal with Rabies. It can affect the unborns.
You can contract the rabies virus from any mammal, including humans. Once you have contracted rabies your survival rate 0% (Unless you have got your shot) Rabies is a highly neurotropic virus that evades immune surveillance by its sequestration in the nervous system. Once you get it you are pretty much screwed, only a handful of people (i don't think over 5 ) have ever survived this virus (They were induced into a coma).
