In a civilized country there are no rabid dogs running down the streets,
because those dogs found to have rabies are euthanized regardelss of them
having bitten anyone yet.  Other important factors are: vaccination and
spaying of domestic animals.

If you've been bitten by a rabid animal and didn't have shots immediately
after (day or two), you're dead.
