How can you tell if an animal has rabies?
user
It’s usually a series of behaviors that might look strange.  For example, the animal might be confused or even anxious, it might feel aggressive and attack other animals or people, or it might even attack itself, especially if it’s an animal that isn’t usually aggressive.

Is there anything else that I might be able to notice?
user
You might notice things in the animal’s behavior, like drooling, or eye flicking, or stumbling, or tail-holding, or unusual staring. Or the animal might look sick, and have other health issues besides the rabies.
