Rabies is nearly always fatal once symptoms appear, but it’s 100% preventable with prompt treatment. The park reminds everyone: never touch wild animals, dead or alive—and if you encounter one, report it to rangers right away. This isn’t the first time rabies has been a concern here—last year, a bat tested positive. Only about 1% of wild bats carry rabies, but the risk spikes if you find one on the ground or handle it.
