In 1998 a buddy of mine got bit by a rabid coon. The vaccination was covered by his insurance (I bet it isn't now!). He told me it would have cost him a little over $1200. No idea what current cost is on rabies. My buddy did tell me that the amount of vaccine depends on your body weight. The more vaccine you need to the higher the cost. So big fellas need to stay away from rabies!!!!

I never wore gloves when handling animals until I joined TBH. I’ve cleaned coons, handled possums, hogs, javelinas, deer, Nilgai, gators, nutria, and countless other critters without gloves.
