#1 This crops up from time to time in the US, I remember cases even back in the 80's. It's rare but happens. I'd be MORE worried about Hanta virus in Colorado.

#3 'Normal' for the four corners area. Usually a handful a year in NM. Stay away from dead animals. Wear long pants outside urban areas.

#5 It is always here in the Prairie dog population. Wiped out a large colony hear Broomfield back in 2006. Usually when a human gets it they are fucking around with the prairie dogs and get bit several times by fleas. Usually happens every couple years.
