This always puzzled me. Why don’t humans act much more aggressive or crazed like its often depicted with animals. Afaik there’s 2 types of rabies, “dumb” and “furious” so my question is more towards the 2nd type. For example, we never hear of rabies causing a human to accidentally bite another human so why is that?

    Humans have a highly developed prefrontal cortex that allows them to suppress their own impulses through conscious will.

    Humans don’t attack people when rabid because they know it’s wrong to do.
