Number of rabid animals in California skyrockets to the most cases in nearly 30 years

Your browser does not support the video tag. California has seen the number of rabid animals skyrocket, with the most cases in nearly 30 years, according to state officials. At least 368 rabid animals were found in the Golden State so far this year, breaking a 28-year record, the California Veterinary Medical Association announced Saturday. Most of the rabid animals were bats or skunks from Southern California, according to the veterinary association. San Diego County health officials sounded the alarm in July after a rabid bat landed on the table where a family was eating lunch at the rustic Yellow Deli chain in Vista. Another diner quickly grabbed the bat with a towel and brought it to the Humane Society in Oceanside. Last month, local health officials reported the first two raccoons to test positive for rabies in Los Angeles County in more than 50 years.
