yes and it can be deadly. a person with advanced rabbies will convulse, act insane, lose control of many functions and eventually die without treatment. rabbies is a virus that causes inflammation of the brain therefore the person will begin act mentally ill. humans usually contract rabbies from the bite of an infected animal. without prompt treatment before the symptoms arise the person is almost sure to die.

Yes. If a human or animal is bit by a rabies-infested animal, they have a high chance of getting it. If you think you've got it, you have to get immediate help, I do believe it's horribly fatal and deadly...

Rabies are usually fatal in people. That is why people who have been exposed need to take the shots.

Most certainly yes! That's why humans get shots at hospitals and such whenever they're bitten by rabid animals or wolves, etc.

YES, YOU CATCH RABIES FROM WILD AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS. YOU CAN CATCH IT FROM THEIR SALIVA IF IT GETS IN CONTACT WITH YOUR BLOOD OR IF BITTEN BY A ANIMAL WITH RABIES. USUALLY IF THE ANIMAL THAT YOU CAME IN CONTACT WITH WILL USUALLY BE TESTED FOR RABIES TO SEE IF YOU NEED TO BE TESTED, IF THE ANIMAL CANT BE FOUND THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO GET THE TEST AND IT IS EXTREMELY PAINFUL.

if they are bitten by an infected animal yes
that is why when a human is bitten by an animal that is not available for testing he must get shots to prevent the disease
as untreated it is lethal

Only if they contract it from and animal that does and it normally kills them if they don't receive shots.

i am no expert, but if a rabid animal bites you, you will experience horrible pain and die without treatment. your best bet is to carry a revolver with silver bullets in it, and shoot every animal that you think is rabid. the silver bullets will break the evil gypsy spell...
