Description

Eduardo Ferreira-Machado and co-authors report rabies in a white-eared opossum in Brazil, thought resistant to the virus. Their 2023 dispatch analyzes bats and opossums tested for rabies during 2021 in one urbanized Brazilian city, where non-blood-feeding bats are the carriers. It matters because opossums were thought to shrug the virus off, thanks to low body temperature. Finding natural infection in one reopens which species can carry urban rabies, and the authors argue wildlife surveillance guards humans and pets against that hidden reservoir.
