§ 4-9. Reporting bites from animals.  


Latest version.
  • Any person which has been bitten or has knowledge of or treats any person bitten by any animal shall report the incident to the police department of the city, or to the appropriate county department, within twenty-four (24) hours thereafter. Birds and reptiles are not considered to be transmitters of the rabies virus and therefore bites from these animals are excluded from reporting requirements.
