The third bat to test positive for rabies comes from the mountains near Lake Isabel:
It is important to remember that bats do exist in a variety of environments. We need to remain vigilant of bat activity no matter where we are.
Please remember to report any contact with a bat or suspected contact with a bat! If the bat flies into you or hits you or a family member at anytime that is considered significant contact and should be reported.
Remember bats can be found every where!! Stay clear of any unfamiliar animal including wildlife!
Rabies is here and it has become a REAL threat to both Pueblo County residents and their pets. Pueblo Animal Services and the Pueblo City-County Health Department remind individuals that vaccination against rabies is mandatory for all dogs and cats in Pueblo County.
