Well better is hard to determine... Stuck working, would rather be
surrounded by ferrets than computers.

Yes many ferrets die from rabies in a shedding study.  But there are likely
to be less ferrets killed for testing over time if testing is done.
 
Ferrets are injected with the virus and their saliva is tested over time.
Eventually most that get rables get put down.
