Should I Get Vaccinated After Accidentally Steeping On A Dead Racoon?

Question : Hello,

I was walking in the woods in New England USA this afternoon. 85F-90F outside temp. I stepped directly on what I believe was a dead racoon laying across the trail. I did not look at it too closely but it was not that greatly decomposed or scavenged (i.e. probably died within last several days). It was flaccid and the skin appeared to be largely intact. I was wearing shoes. I kicked my shoes off a little down the trail because I did not want to track anything from the carcass into my car. Walked the remaining way back barefoot (I was pretty near the car). I plan to recover the shoes with a plastic bag tomorrow. Should I get a rabies vaccination? I am currently uninsured so would rather not if not necessary. I don't expect it to be necessary just thought I would check. I have heard high temperatures kill rabies quickly in dead animals and also I was not bit and I don't believe I had any skin openings and I was wearing shoes until after I stepped on the animal.

Hi,

Thanks for the re-assurance. Should the shoes be safe to pick up tomorrow?
