Lots of different kinds of bacteria to worry about from a bite like that! Rabies isn't the only concern. Consider that it's a scavenger... that bite is pretty septic.

Land Manager of Company i am working for. Was nice enough. To see me a Summer intern. That works for them. He is opening all locked gates for me so i dont have to limp around. And open and close them

And open and close them Oh geez, you're going to milk this for all it's worth aren't you? While you're at it you should also ask for a guy to ride along with you to check your traps while you sit in the truck. Rub some on it and get back to work. lol You can't cheat the mountain pilgrim.

I've been there before lol.. had a cat last year burried in Johnson grass on a drag that managed to claw and bite my bibs and muck Boot after I had fallen back in a wash pulling the drag out of the mess. Turns out I have cat reflexes when being preyed upon! Thankfully claws nor teeth made it through my jeans. Battle scars on bibs tho
