Seals are not typically known carriers of rabies, and there have been very few documented cases of marine mammals, including seals, contracting the virus. Rabies primarily affects terrestrial mammals, particularly carnivores like raccoons, skunks, and bats. While it's theoretically possible for a seal to become infected if bitten by a rabid animal, such instances are extremely rare. Overall, seals are not considered a significant risk for rabies transmission.
