TY - JOUR PY - 1985// TI - Urban dog rabies endemicity and dog physiology JO - International journal of zoonoses A1 - Narayan, K. G. SP - 22 EP - 27 VL - 12 IS - 1 N2 - The frequency of dog-bite cases receiving anti rabic vaccine was studied for five years. Their monthwise frequency was studied. Six opportunities of contact in any calendar year which might lead to rabies transmission were identified to be provided by dog's physiological behaviour. A prediction on this basis of the frequency of months when dog rabies would appear, was brought out. This was compared with observed frequency. These are discussed. Keywords: Animal Bites; Dog Bites
