Dying from Vampire Bats?


Remote villages in Venezuela are bloody spots today...At least 38 people died presumably from rabies coming from bites of vampire bats. Until today I would never have believed it could be possible. Well researcheres from the University of California are trying to confirm it.
Among the symptoms pointing to rabies are body pains, fever and, would you believe, an extreme fear of water! What do you think the reason for the outbreak of the vampire bats? Researches suspect it's environmental degradation like constuction projects, mining and logging...
People are a pretty easy meal if vampire bats are disturbed...
