(Reuters) - A two-month-old bear cub meant to help students relax before final exams nipped more than a dozen of them at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, and will have to be killed for rabies testing, the school said Friday. The cub, named Boo Boo, was brought to the university campus on Sunday along with other animals from a local petting zoo, the school said in a statement. Animals from the zoo have been brought to the private university in St. Louis for several years during exam time, but Boo Boo was included this year without the university's knowledge, the statement said. If the bear tests positive, students will be advised to get vaccinated for rabies, a life-threatening viral disease. via Health News Headlines - Yahoo News Read More Here..
