Praomys (Mastomys) natalensis, the multimammate mouse, proved resistant to the intracerebral and peripheral infection with rabies virus of serotype 1, which is found world-wide. It is, however, fully susceptible to the other serotypes of this virus group, which to-date have only been found on the African continent. Resistance develops between the third and twenty-first day after birth. In the brain of the resistant animal the inoculated virus multiplies to a low degree and the animal does not develop a fatal disease.
