TRUE or FALSE:- a rabid dog dies within 11 hours.

Answer:
No!
But there is a reason to be careful.
If the dog in question died within a span of 10 days(approx) without any physical or external cause such as being hit by a veichal, or being poisoned by someone.
If the dog dies without any external cause then it is an indication that dog had had some disease such as rabies. Which led to its early demise. Now that should raise your eyebrows as rabies is 100% fatal. There is very very little chance of surviving once the symptoms have started showing in a person.
But obviously you can't just observe the dog for 10 days. Get the proper vaccine immediately after a dog bite.
PS : This also means don't kill the dog if it bites you atleast for the purpose of observation.
So it is looking good if the dog is alive at 10 days. However, this data is for the US ONLY. Other countries do not have the same prevalence of rabies or vaccinations. Like I said, if the animal got sick and died on day 11, I would be concerned.
so... I think it is false because all time it doesn't work
