Rabies is a virus that affects the brain of mammals and is usually fatal once symptoms occur. The virus is found in the saliva, brain, and spinal fluid of infected animals and is most often spread when an infected animal bites another animal or person.

Protect yourself by avoiding touching animals in public, especially those displaying strange behavior. Protect your pets and other animals by having them vaccinated.

Ground level ozone pollution is bad stuff! It makes people sick, hurts our eyes, and is unhealthy for kids and grown ups with asthma. Lots of things cause ozone pollution, like cards, trucks, paint, and factories.

Do you know any junior scientists? We have an activity book that helps teach children about clean air in Colorado. It’s perfect for Air Quality Awareness Week!
