NT: Rabies outbreak in Bali, Australians warned

Australians travelling to Bali are being warned about an outbreak of rabies.

The Indonesian island was considered to be free of the disease .. until it was found
last week in two dogs at popular Kuta beach.

Health authorities say tourists should avoid dogs .. cats and monkeys .. and anyone
who's been bitten by an animal in Bali in the past five months should get to a doctor.
