Rabies has been found in a cow in the Owen Sound area.
The Grey Bruce Health Unit says tests confirm rabies in a cow found in the area by Springmount, Jackson and Kilsyth.
Officials say the case is a reminder that rabies is present in local wildlife and can spill over into the domestic animal population and create a risk to humans.
Rabies is a deadly disease of the central nervous system that affects humans and other mammals.
Rabies is fatal to animals and without timely treatment will also cause death in humans.
Officials want you to immunize your pets and keep an eye on them — and do not feed or touch wild or unknown animals.
