Joyce,

UTAH is also famous for road kill.  We  have our own version of the Road Kill
Cafe menus, but I haven't seen one in some time.  The street I live on is half
pavement and half biological...  you could do DNA testing on it!  *sick grin*

<p>        It seems totally extreme,
and to me, unprofessional, to suggest to
<br>anyone to
<br>        handle, process and use
tissues from animals of unknown origin. The
<br>cases of
<br>        rabies, at least in North
Carolina are on the rise, visit

<br>        Also, you can learn more
about protecting yourself about rabies at
<br>the following
<br>        CDC web site

<p>        However, there are other
potential zoonoses (since animals may serve
<br>as
<br>        reservoirs for zoonotic
pathogens that cause infections in animals
<br>and are also
<br>        transmissible to humans).
The list may be long and can include
<br>tuberculosis,
<br>        brucellosis, leptospirosis,
anthrax, salmonellosis, E. coli
<br>bacillosis,
<br>        arbovirus infections (Venezuelan
equine encephalitis), etc. You may
<br>want to
<br>        consult a professional.
