Answer: I would say False

Step-by-step explanation:

Although yes, eating the meat from an infected animal is discouraged, there have never been any actual cases of humans infected with rabis after meat consumption.

Therefore, because no such case has yet been documented, the answer is false.

People usually get rabies from the bite of a rabid animal. Rabies virus is transmitted through direct contact with saliva. The virus infects the central nervous system and is lethal if the following symptoms are ignored:

* Fever

*Sore throat

Then it becomes neurological (very dangerous)

Convulsions

Aggression

Hypersalivation

Hallucinations

Paralysis

hydrophobia

Hyperventilation

!Seek medical help if suspect you or a family member have rabies!
