I think the officials overreacted, I understand that rabies is a nasty fatal disease. But the euthanasia is completely unnecessary. The officials say it’s to determine that the animals don’t have rabies after peanut bit one of them. If the animals turned out negative for rabies then it means no danger, if positive the only thing they can do is vaccinate the worker, there’s nothing else they can do but wait. Why not just vaccinate the worker and let the animals live?
Also sheltered animals are in no danger of having rabies unless they are bitten by a rabid animal outside.
