for one thing, bugs cannot get rabies. only mammals can get it. what happens is one mammal bites another mammal and the bitten one gets rabies. rabies is transferred through Silva. so when a rabid animal bites through skin, it's Silva (or spit) seeps into the wound and infects the bitten animal.
By coming in contact with the salavia of an infected animal. Dog are constantly licking each other - even in the mouth so they are one of the primary sufferers. Bat are also a primary source as they have such tight commual living.
any contact of body fluids like blood or spit can transfer rabies.
The way animals get rabies is by getting bitten by a mouse or any animal or insect that already has rabies.
Rabies is usually transmitted to people from the bite of an infected mammal. The virus is in the saliva of the infected animal and must be transferred to the blood stream of the victim.
Most deaths from rabies in the United States and Canada result from bat bites; the most recent fatality was a 66-year-old man in California who died in September 2003.
