dc.description.abstractIn February 1995, the Texas DSHS initiated the Oral Rabies Vaccination Program (ORVP) as a multiyear program to create zones of vaccinated coyotes (and followed in 1996 with gray foxes) along the leading edges of the epizootics to halt the spread of the virus. The ORVP is a cooperative program involving DSHS; Texas Cooperative Extension Wildlife Services; U.S. Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services; Texas National Guard; U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; Merial Ltd.; Dynamic Aviation Group; U.S. Army Veterinary Laboratory at Fort Sam Houston, San Antonio; Texas A&M University System; and other local, state and federal agencies.
