Ecology of rabies in Southern Rhodesia.

The spread of rabies since 1950 in Southern Rhodesia is described, and its probable causes analysed; the outbreak is attributed chiefly to the vast domestic-dog population, but cases have been noted among many other species of animal. The difficulties encountered in enforcing general control measures are discussed; however, the advent of Flury-strain avianized vaccine has allowed of a successful inoculation campaign which, in spite of some failure in immunization, is satisfactorily controlling the disease in most of the areas involved.

Rabies in Canada, with special reference to wildlife reservoirs.

The course of known outbreaks of rabies in Canada in the 20th century is sketched, and the present extensive enzootic described. Its spread throughout the North West Territories, and in the Provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Quebec, and Saskatchewan, is attributed to the vast potential reservoirs of infection offered by the density of fauna in these areas-in particular, of foxes and wolves. Control and eradication is being attempted-with some success-chiefly by reducing the wildlife population and restricting the movement of dogs.
