Geolocation of cattle rabies outbreaks in Costa Rica (1985–2016). a Map of Costa Rica with the period and size, i.e., number of rabies deaths, of cattle rabies outbreaks. Most outbreaks occurred between 2001 and 2005 and 2011–2015. Numbers of rabies deaths were grouped in 6 categories and most of the outbreaks had between 1 to 5 deaths. b Map of Costa Rica with the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phase in which cattle rabies outbreaks occurred (square-normal, circle-hot and triangle-cold). Disease clusters from the annual SaTScan spatio-temporal analysis are indicated by circles. Clusters were estimated with and without imputed denominators. These maps were made using as base a public domain map from the US National Park Service [86]
