Let me ask you this. If the animal is tested as rabid. What's the next step for the bitten?
If a animal is tested positive the human have to undergo about 2-4 vaccinations that might need to be repeated and will cost a great amount, or they die. The vaccination has a lot of side effects.
It doesn’t have any more potential side effects than any other vaccine. It’s not special in this regard.
So the euthanasia step is really not needed and just go straight to the vaccination part.
Sure, that makes sense for a country with socialized health care. You still shouldn't keep wild animals as pets.
