Depends where you live I suppose. My daughter and two of her friends were in the woods with one of the moms a month or so ago, and one of the girls was bit by a presumably rabid raccoon. She went to the hospital, got treated, was released the next day and has been fine. We don't live in a particularly dangerous area as far as rabies goes, and the county animal control guy was apparently surprised, but it just happens sometimes I guess. Fortunately it seems like the course of rabies treatment is not as difficult as it used to be assuming you get to the hospital in time.
