From the UK Daily Mail:
Discovering a rat trapped in a wire bird feeder in her back garden animal lover Carol Colburn was swift to act.
The mother-of-three ignored the pleas of her husband to wear gloves and set about freeing the terrified animal.
But she paid for her act of kindness with her life.
The 56-year-old suffered scratches and cuts to her hands in the process of releasing the creature. Unknown to her she had contracted the rare - but deadly - Weil's disease.
