No sympathy from me. Shows stupidity. Just glad it was not a child. Even animals that have been socialized / tamed bite. DAAAAH.
ReplyDeleteThat poor horse may get rabies from the stupid human....lol
ReplyDeleteI'd shot that horse, or at least feed it some poison later!
ReplyDeleteRabies shots hurt like hell, and they are injected into your Liver!
Why should a horse 🐴 lose its life because some parent didn't control their child and tell them NO?! Humans are a virus on this planet. Animals are content to just be. Why not punish the kid then maybe he'll learn not to dick with animals he doesn't know.
Delete249 ever heard of parental responsibility? Snowflake ❄️ idiot.
DeleteHumans are a virus on this planet?
ReplyDeleteWow.
Are you an animal?
Wow 257. Are you so bored you are here making stupid statements that aren't even true?
DeleteRabies vaccine is NOT injected into the liver. Also, if the offending animal is being observed, it's not always necessary to start rabies injections right away. People should exercise some common sense when near any wild animal. Too much stupid in the world today.
ReplyDeleteI was on the beach and saw wild horse jumped on the back and road him a good mile. Being part Native American it's in my blood. However I don't recommend it.
ReplyDeleteWow 3:02. Are you so stupid you are here making illogical statements that don't make any sense?
ReplyDeleteYou seriously have no room to talk about stupid and logic. You're a walking poster child of what's wrong in this world 314.
DeleteNo rabies shots are not injected into the liver. The 4 shots are injected into the upper arm and hurt no more then any other shot. What hurts is the cost if your insurance won't pick it up and some won't. About $10,000.
ReplyDelete314 is a moron. Where do these people shop? I wanna know because I don't want to be around morons like that in social or public setting.
ReplyDeleteNot to worry 3:14. You are about 2 university degrees and multiple 6 figure income away from shopping where I shop. Not running into the likes of you is why I go there.
ReplyDeleteNo sympathy from me either. They are tired already of all the beach traffic on their turf.
ReplyDeleteYou folks should learn to google instead of thinking you are experts.
ReplyDeleteQuestion: Why is rabies treatment shots given in abdomen? or near navel?
Answer
Ian York, Virologist, immunologist, biologist
It isn't given in the abdomen, and hasn't been for decades. Modern treatment of rabies bites involve treatment with rabies immunoglobulins as soon as possible followed by 5 doses of rabies vaccine: "the post-exposure schedule prescribes intramuscular given as four to five doses over four weeks" Five injections over a four-week period can easily be given in the arms and legs.
The original post-exposure vaccine series was indeed given in the abdomen. It required 21 daily injections, and it was pretty nasty. This method was stopped in the 1980s.
So these wild horses have Rabies, and they are being captured and sold to families, nice.
ReplyDeleteThe Endless Summer of 2017 has officially begun! 90+ days until September!
ReplyDeleteI worked at Assateague State Park for three summers. There were signs posted everywhere in the park saying to stay back from the horses and not to feed them. And yet, every year I saw tourist / campers feed the wild horses by hand, pet them, and even try to ride them. And every year I saw the boneheads get bitten and kicked by the horses. The horses are actually an "attractive nuisance" much like a swimming pool in a neighborhood with kids. The only way to keep them away from people (or vise-versa) is to fence them in. Signs don't mean a thing to most tourists, and the park services see the horses as an attraction to get tourists to visit the islands, and promote them as a marketing tool. Both the Park Services, and the tourists are at fault when injuries occur due to tourist contact with the horses.
