another day in the yard....and another big fucking raccoon
and this one is not acting normal
he literally came towards me as I was raking the leaves.....and he's now walking the exact same loop along the side of my house, behind the hedge etc....walking slow....just keeps walking the same loop
I'm guessing distemper (....this is raccoon #2 with distemper at my place this year)
311 got the call....now waiting for Animal Services to show up
it's like I'm living in a fucking zoo this year
^ Similar issues over my way Tim, third summer of it and counting. Two years back, fat fawker sawed shingles off the roof in a dozen plus spots. This summer, out back late on evening, here rustling on the garage roof, look up to see 4 or 5 staring down at me. Had tree service in to cut all the trees back.
animal control just left
located but couldn't get the bastard yet....he can still climb
told me it's definitely distemper....so this raccoon is gonna deteriorate and get much worse over the next 24-48 hours
and of course....he's gonna be lingering in our backyards acting like a nutcase until he's sick enough for them to catch him
so much for raking leaves
yes....but she said to call if/when we see that it's looking like it's struggling and give the location
seems that it's living under a shed 4 doors down.....funny thing, when she tried to coax it towards her it started going up a tree...and when I started talking to her it came down and started coming towards me
it's like it just wants to come towards me.....just like the baby skunk earlier this year....wtf....am I Dr. Fucking Doolittle or something?
lady said with distemper they will do the exact opposite of how they would normally behave
I'm hoping the thing decides to do it's final stages of this illness in someone else's yard besides mine
we'll know soon
