Un-named

               NOTE: This did not happen to me, just sharing my experience.

               I'll make a long story short. I am a Receptionist at an Animal Hospital, and
               I received a call the other day. I picked up the phone, and to my suprise
               the caller was from Florida. She had found our number on the internet as
               a Hospital that saw  gliders. Her daughter? had taken her  to school that
               day, while it was there, it bit the little "troublemaker" boy. He complained
               about his hand hurting, like any child would I'm sure. Now the school
               wanted to do a rabies test on the glider. For those of you who do not
               know...they just don't poke the  and return it to the owners. They
               actually take off it's head, send it in to a labratory, etc., to determine if it
               has rabies. If so, the person can get the neccessary shots...if not...the glider
               is dead. I did the best with the information that I had, and sent her
               addresses of Vets in Florida. I have not heard from her again...maybe
               never will. Don't know if the school followed through with the test (which
               they have the right to do). Anyways...BE CAREFUL! If your  bites
               somebody, bad things can happen.
