Answers:
bats do not become aggressive when rabid!. less then 1% has rabies but, if u think u have been bitten by a bat take normal precautions clean the wound and if it becomes red ask a doctor if he thinks a rabies shot is a good idea because even tho bats are not known to carry the disease very often if one does come in contact with you and you are bitten left untreated the disease is deadly but bats rarely bite humans almost every person who gets bit does so because they pick up a sick or injured bat!. bats have razor sharp teeth and the bite is painless so its very hard to indicate the teeth markings they do not make "fang like" abrasions if bitten by a bat fang like marks only appear on the skin from the teeth of a vampire bat and they are not in the united states their only found in south america and only a few in central america but like any other wild animal, bats should never be handled at any time, especially when found on the ground or in a home you have most likely been bitten by a spider which is certainly more dangerous then a bat if you come in contact with the wrong ones if the site becomes red and swollen go to the ER asap it could be a poisonous spider and they are absolutely fatal to humans if not treatedWww@Answer-Health@Com
If you suspect in anyway it's a bat bite- GO SEE A DOCTOR!. Bat bites are the main way humans contract rabies- and they often go unnoticed until it's too late!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
