Rabies is believed to have originated over 4,000 years ago, likely in the Middle East or the Mediterranean region. The virus is primarily transmitted through the saliva of infected animals, with bats, dogs, and other mammals being common carriers. Historically, it has been documented in various animal species, reflecting its long-standing presence in wildlife. The disease is caused by the rabies virus, a member of the Lyssavirus genus.
