Rabies is called a neurotropic disease as it is capable of entering and infecting the nervous system. Rabies is transferred by saliva and/or blood in warm blooded animals. Symtoms of rabies are neurological (hence neurotropic), that is, they affect brain cognition causing irrational behaviour as well as encephalitis (acute swelling of the brain).
The Rabies virus is neurotropic because it replicates almost exclusively in the central nervous system.
According to Merriam-Webster Dictionary neurotropic is "having an affinity for or localizing selectively in nerve tissue".
