If you are bitten or scratched by a wild animal:

  • Wash wounds thoroughly.
  • Apply bandages.
  • Seek medical attention. Be sure to tell the doctor you are a trapper and had contact with an animal.

If possible, confine the animal for observation. Otherwise, kill it without damaging the head. Public health officials can test the brain tissue for rabies.
