Which of the following animals is known not to normally transmit rabies?

Rabbits are typically not considered a normal reservoir or transmitter of rabies. This is because, while any mammal has the potential to contract rabies if bitten by an infected animal, rabbits are not commonly associated with rabies transmission. Rabies is primarily transmitted through the saliva of infected animals, often through bites, and rabbits are not vectors for the virus in the wild.

In contrast, bats, foxes, and raccoons are all known carriers of rabies, and they play a significant role in the epidemiology of the disease. Bats, in particular, are one of the most common sources of rabies transmission to other species, including humans. Foxes and raccoons are also frequently involved in rabies outbreaks due to their interactions with other wildlife and domestic animals. Therefore, the distinction of rabbits as not typically transmitting rabies makes it the correct choice in this context.
