ï· Rabies: This is a possible cause of ataxia in endemic areas and is contracted via a bite from a rabid animal such as a fox, bat, skunk, raccoon or dog. The rabies virus enters the nervous system at the level of the bite, and may cause changes in mentation and/or ataxia depending on the location of the bite. There is no treatment for rabies once signs appear, but there is a good vaccine available. The vaccination is recommended for horses that live in endemic areas.
Typhus fevers are caused by the rickettsiae bacteria and transmitted by arthropod (e.g. flea, mite, tick) bites. When arthropods bite a victim, they leave the rickettsaie bacteria behind.Scratching the bite opens the skin to the bacteria, allowing them to enter the bloodstream.ypes of typhus and carriers: 1  epidemic/louse-borne typhus (caused by Rickettsia prowazekii) carried by the body-louse. 2  murine typhus (caused by R. typhi) carried by the rat or cat flea. 3  scrub typhus (caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi) carried by mites.
