This International Day of the Seal, we have some worrying news – for the first time ever, a deadly rabies outbreak is spreading through Cape fur seal colonies in South Africa. 🦭
“What is unfolding along the South African coastline is unprecedented,” says ASI program director Debby Querido.
“There is potential for this outbreak to develop into a large-scale cross-species pandemic. I’m worried we are underestimating the danger this poses to our marine ecosystems and the animals that call them home.”
In infected animals, the virus causes heightened aggression, disorientation, and, within 10 to 14 days, death.
There is no cure.
If the virus is able to jump species again, it could infect other marine mammals such as orcas, dolphins and whales.
If this happens, these species could spread the virus across the world’s oceans, leading to a widespread marine catastrophe.
