Hmmmmm. I've had several friends pick up social diseases from "foxes" in
France too. Never heard of anyone getting rabies though. /jmac

Rabies. More dangerous than toad rage in the land of Froggies. We have foxes
and coyotes in our area outside Austin and keep the cats INDOORS. They'll
get to run around when we have a secure fenced area, and only those who can
fight and they'll still be curfewed. Kept them safe for years, and cut down
on their unnecessary hunting, too.
I vaguely remember that food-based vaccines are dropped for the foxes. When
I was playing soldier twenty years ago (the safe desk jockey variety), there
was extra hardship pay for those who were sent off to Germany. Got myself
into plenty of trouble by asking the captain making a big presentation on
the dangers of rabies in the camp auditorium if there was a connection
between the prevalence of rabies in Germany and the extra money. {Smart
