Fish cake that I found while hiking? "Don't touch it." [Anchor Report]

If the autumn leaves turn red with Jicheon soon in this clear autumn weather, hikers will be busy.

However, even if you find a square object while hiking, you should never touch it.

That's because it's rabies prevention bait.

This bait is the principle that the vaccine is contained in the fish cake dough, which improves immunity when consumed by wild animals.

The Seoul Metropolitan Government posted a notice asking people not to touch the bait even if they find it.

This is because it can sometimes cause itching in the human body, and wild animals may not eat it if a person's body odor is on it.

In addition, it is not harmful for pets to eat, but in order to achieve accurate preventive effects, they are advised to get vaccinated at an animal hospital.

Starting today (14th), the Seoul Metropolitan Government has decided to spray 37,000 rabies bait prevention drugs around major mountains and rivers marked with red lines.

Since rabies broke out in wild raccoons in Eunpyeong-gu in 2006, such preventive spraying has begun.

Since then, no rabies has been reported in Seoul.
