Vampire Bats Kill 11 People In Brazil
In less than two months, 11 people have died from rabies transmitted by vampire bats in the northern Brazilian state of Para, according to health officials.

Authorities said the victims were bitten near the small town of Augusto Correa, about 1,500 miles northeast of Rio de Janeiro.

Health officials attempting to catch the vampire bats have nabbed about 300 in the area, according to the report.
