During the
Austin, Texas, Dec. 24
winter months hunting rabbits is a !
popular sport and a wild rabbit makes j
a very fine food, hut according to E
the State Health Department, ex- ! gun
treme care should be used in the I the
handling of wild rabbits to prevent [ Am
a possible infection with tularemia, j gini
‘‘Those little cottontail rabbits are T
not always as harmless as they look.” ‘ fror
states Dr. Geo. W. Cox, State Health Army
Officer, “for some of them are in- miles
fected with tularemia. This serio.is j way. i
disease which is also known as ru >- of Hij
bit fever usually is acquired by human • strict*
beings through contact with infested of sui
rabbits or through contact with the j The
| infected insect that spreads it from >n Tv
; animal to animal.” j Pass-
Dr. Cox cautioned that hunters , ^ai
| should shoot only the frisky rabbits 1 - 1_-
, that run away. A rabbit without tae so
the energy to scamper away from Uancl
■ the hunter is likely to be a sick one | appro
that can transmit tularemia to those ^ial'
I who handle him. coinei
“It is necessary to handle uncooked -’f J%1‘'
rabbit meat cautiously,” Dr. Cox 1 01 ’
said. “The use of rubber gloves a P°’
will protect your hands since the | n 1 ’^
germs may enter the body through j 11
any cut or scratch however small if
the rabbit is handled without gloves. J><M .
“As a further safeguard, rabbit ,ro‘sUi
I west
meat should be cooked very thorough- ,
. . ,• ger a
lv so as to destroy any disease pro-
i . . ... . . sons £
ducing germs that may be present.
This means that it should be cooked ^
i at a boiling temperature for at least i ,,
. . , , , . on all
20 minutes before cooking it to your I .
