Hunters Advised To
'Handle With Care

"Wild rabbits should be handled
with extreme care at every stage be-

room table" Or. r. II. Riley, Director
Of the State Department Of Health,
warns hunters and housewives
THE rabbits that run wild in Mary
land can provide good sport and de-
licious food without endangerirg
health if the animals are handled
with reasonable caution.
III a rabbit is diseased careless
handling can cause tularemia-ol
rabbit fever. This communicable dis
ease is transmitted from rabbits to
human beings, usually through direc-
contact with the infected animal or
with objects contaminated by the
meat OF fur. Each year enough cases
Of tularemia occur in Maryland to
indicate that a considerable proper
ton of our wild rabbits may be in-
fected and capable of giving this
serious disease to human beings who
handle them without due care.
"The first precaution recommended
is to take only apparently healthy
rabbits that run away as the hunter
approaches, for a cottontail without
enough energy to dash for his life Is
probably sick. For the sake of his
own health and that of his family the
hunter should shoot only frisky rab-
bits.
although all rabbits are not, of
course, infected with tularmenia, a
sensible health precaution is to handle
even apparently healthy rabbits as

sible sources of infection. Gloves,
