Rabies hasn’t gone away.


Successful Rabies Elimination from Europe



Since 1978, Europe has successfully vaccinated wildlife against Rabies. Today, because of oral Rabies vaccines like Rabitec, people, pets, and livestock remain safe. Our vaccines have played a pivotal role in eliminating rabies across Europe.

Rabitec (Wildlife) helps protect wildlife and prevent Rabies from returning.

It is a third-generation oral rabies vaccine developed 
by Ceva.

RABITEC (Fox) is a third-generation oral rabies vaccine, designed for maximum safety and protection. It uses three targeted genetic changes to ensure effectiveness, stability, and control.
Designed for use in foxes and raccoon dogs, the vaccine is delivered in a bait form animals are attracted to.
Once consumed, the vaccine triggers a strong immune response, without the need for injections, restraint, or stress.
