To some extent, maybe.

Although, it needs to be balanced against other options. I’m sure this list isn’t exhaustive but we have:

* Medicine

* Uncontrolled spread

* Somehow modify the animals’ behavior to spread illnesses less

* Wipe out infected animals

2 and 4 seem less than desirable. 3… I mean “herding cats” is an expression for a reason, right? They are not very obedient in general.

Is there a good option I missed?
