Rabies
Although the purpose of animal code enforcement is focused upon rabies prevention, reporting of animal bites is directly aimed at prevention of this disease.  Anyone having knowledge of an animal biting or scratching so as to break the skin is required by Texas State Law to report the incident to the local health authority. 

This may be done in San Antonio by calling:  (210) 737-1600

Children should be cautioned to never play with wild animals, especially skunks, bats, raccoons or unknown dogs and cats. If a biting animal dies, you should call 737-1600.
