Tularemia occurs
in Texas game
Here's another disease you can
arki to your knowledge. It"s tula-
remia. sometimes called "rabbit
fever.'1
TUiaremia ;s one disease people
contact from animals. Rarely, if
ever is tularemia tarried from
one p. son to another. It is most
commonly acquired by handling
the carcass or eating the under-
cooked flesh of infected animals
Bites of sjck animals or of insects
which havt bitten animals also
spread the disease.
People have been infected b\
drinking water from streams in-
habited by diseased animals such
as beavers and muskrats.
The most ccimmim animal vic-
tims of the disease are rabbits
However, a variety of other ani-
mals—including dogs, cats and
squirrels—sometimes become in-
fected Insects and birds are also
known to contract the infection
Tularemia is caused by th<
germ Pasteurella tularensis. It
needs no wound for entry into the
| body but is able to go through
apparently healthy skin. Infection
i can result by rubbing the eyes
with contaminated fingers.
The disease does occur in Tex-
as. where wildlife is plentiful.
About 16 cases were recorded in
1964. Every year or so, the record
shows a death due to tularemia.
You can reduce your chances of
contracting tularemia by follow-
ing a few simple precautions.
When you are out of doors-
hunting. working or hiking—wear
clothing with long sieeves and
trousers and tight fitting cuffs to
avoid as many tick and insect
bites as possible.
If an animal, < specially a rab-
bit. appears sluggish and is easily
caught by dogs, it is probably
sick Handle it cautiously and de-
stroy it by burning or burying
When dressing wild game, yel-
lowish spots on the liver or spleen
are a sign of danger Bury or
burn the animal immediately if
these are present, and wash your
hands thoroughly with, soap and
water and an anus« ptic

Norton said the crush swamped
his me-man stafl and that a park

Ranger Billy J Smith later made
his own routine refill tin big
crowd but modestly refrained
from taking any extraordinary
credit.
