A miniature horse was attacked by a rabid coyote on Tucson's east side, adding to a concerning trend of rabid animal attacks in the area. Arizona Game and Fish Department has reported a total of four suspected rabies cases since the last quarter of 2023, with three aggressive attacks by wildlife. Officials urge pet owners to ensure their animals are up to date on rabies vaccinations and to avoid touching their pets if attacked by a wild animal. Residents are advised to clear the area and contact Arizona Game and Fish Tucson if they encounter any strange-acting animals.
