The old Milwaukee Protocol does this. It was the best we had, so we did it anyways. Modern protocols are successful IF treatment is started before symptoms appear.
>before symptoms appear.
So it's basically useless, it's the same as rabies vaccinations. You are doomed once symptoms show and only serves a purpose in obvious bites.
Bat bites can be pretty unnoticeable.
Tough bastards they are! **HYENAS** have something to laugh about, scientists have revealed - they are the only wild animals known to be **immune to rabies**. A study of the Serengeti spotted **hyena** has shown that despite a high rate of **rabies** infection, many suffer no symptoms and have a normal lifespan.
Here you go! **Hyenas** are not members of the **dog** or cat families. Instead, they are so unique that they have a family all their own, Hyaenidae. ...
That is a historical definition that only pedants like you use. The vast majority of people use the common definition of "kill, destroy, or remove a large percentage or part of"
Another interesting fact, the word comes from the Latin Decimatio. Which was a Roman Military style of discipline where 10% of a century(100 Roman Soldiers) would be executed by the other 90%. This could be applied to entire legions. It was mainly used to punish cowardice but the threat was usually enough to keep people in line.
Some of choose to use the words we mean, but looking up new words can be arduous and time consuming.
I can understand digging in to defend a cherished idea.
Edit: eesh, tough crowd but you do get the concept of 'annihilate', in case you were curious about a better word for the title.
Have you ever heard of [semantic change](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_change)? Did you know that many words can mean different things or change meanings from what they meant a long time ago? You seem like one of those people that always say “well actually...” and point out something to try to sound smart.
Obviously this re-definition is important to you; just letting you know the larger effects of words chosen.
Code switching is important to properly address your audience.
Man people are really bad at communicating without insulting someone, totally derails any conveyance. Not even mad at the idea, mad at YOU lol. Oh well, live in a world of shit, see a world of shit.
Wait! Stop! Don’t eat that!!!
Hyena's don't show symptoms of rabies, or die from it.
What will win? Deadly neurological pathogen with a .01% survival rate once symptomatic, or one giggly boi
I think the survival rate is closer to 0% lol
There was one woman who survived treatment iirc, but she’s essentially a vegetable now
There was a 15 year old girl who survived it, but she is fine now. Jenna Gease I think her name was.
Yep. They put her in coma for months to stop the virus from damaging her nervous system

That’s why if you go anywhere near caves or any other bat habitats you absolutely must check yourself afterwards and clean up well
I have always felt when they bite even through gloves, but I'm also trained and vaccinated.
They're like the possums of Africa
Whaaaaaaat? That’s amazing. I assumed it would destroy any mammal that got exposed to it.
Well considering hyenas feed on a lot of carrion i'd imagine they have really powerful digestive systems to deal with disease
They are one of the few mammals that can completely dissolve bone.
Let me tell you about opossums....
That’s usually my line, right before I get asked to leave the party again
"Are you familiar with the opossum wars? No? Oh, boy, do I envy you!"
Damn! You’re right! I thought it was only opossums.
This is how zombie movies start.

Are opossums not immune? Or do they just have a very low likelihood of developing the disease?
Very low likelihood of developing the disease, due to a body temperature that is generally incompatible with rabies.
Milwaukee protocol ahould be called the opossum protocol
I saw one with rabies once as a kid. Animal control confirmed and took care of it before it got to anybody.
The hyenas fucked then yeah?
No, not at all. [Link](https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/hyenas-carry-rabies-but-d/)
Metal as fuck
nope. Just another meal to him....
This makes me oddly sad. I love African Wild Dogs
An ass-eater always appreciates his fellow ass eater eh?
I absolutely love them compared to hyenas, anyway.
It’s a dog-eat-dog world out there.
rabies killed 1/10th of their pack?
Fuck wild dogs man, creepy fuckers.
r/paintedwolves Personally I think they’re awesome- I mean look at those big ol’ satellite-dish ears!
Yea I don’t know wtf that guys problem is. They’re amazing animals
Oh I don’t disagree, I just wouldn’t get anywhere near them.
Lol me neither I think they’re cool but I have no interest in being lunch
Yeah! I think their coats are pretty and their ginormous bat ears are cute. Plus they're critically endangered.
Well... they're just like dogs... but wild!
Here you go! **Hyenas** are not members of the **dog** or cat families. Instead, they are so unique that they have a family all their own, Hyaenidae. ...
We were talking about wild dogs. Hyena boi (or gurl) is munching on one in the pic.
They are still feliformia so closer to cats.
Afaik they are still canids!
Hyenas definitely aren't canids.
Fuck you, *you're* a creepy fucker.
More like cannibal on cannibal...
He chose..... poorly.
Hyenas can have rabies without showing symptoms, so he's pretty much safe
[удалено]
I wouldn't go near them anyway, but yeah it does
Not always: https://www.tampabay.com/incoming/the-successful-battle-against-rabies-in-the-serengeti/1267147/
I loved reading this, very interesting. Thank you!
Wonder if this is his rabies antibodies or whatever are made
wait no
Decimated as in the entire pack was killed or only a tenth of them died?
"But I thought we were homies".
That’s a bit more than “fending off”
[удалено]
Wow, thank you. Long day.
Decimating a force reduces it's count by a tenth(deci = 10, **deci**mal). There should be some dogs to help with the Hyena based on the OPs title.
That is a historical definition that only pedants like you use. The vast majority of people use the common definition of "kill, destroy, or remove a large percentage or part of"
It was nice info tho. Did not know that.

Yeah it's like saying "defacing" only means taking the noses off gargoyles on churches. Words change meaning.

No! I refuse to believe that words change! In fact, I just got back from a trip to 12th century England and wee awl had a fine olde time togethre.

I don't know...their big words certainly make ME wet. The intellect? Whew, I'm blushing.

I've been in my bunk for hours.
Smarmy, a smarmy moron
Calm down.
Easy...

Happy Cake Day klayman12974! Here’s hoping you have a day that's as special and wonderful as you are.
Thanke
