[Modelling of spatial evolution and dynamics of a population of healthy then rabies infected foxes].

The authors describe the main feature of a computer model which helps to simulate the evolution of a rabies epi-enzootic in foxes. They show first the goals and interests of the study, then the originality of used methodology. Their results deal successively with dynamic evolution of a healthy population of foxes, then with this same population infected with rabies and, at last, spatial and temporal evolution of the enzootics. Simulated results are discussed by comparison with those observed in the field.
