PMCID: PMC1789966  PMID: 7340931

Abstract

Rabies vaccines for use as a preventive in wildlife have not yet been licensed.

There are several vaccines which, based on tests in dogs, merit trial especially in foxes and skunks and these are summarized in a table.

Trials are being conducted in Canada on the effectiveness of several of these vaccines in foxes and skunks.
