Yup, right now it seems like we have quite a few possum around us. Every now and then we have to call DNR to come and check out one that's acting rabid. Haven't had as many in the yard since we fenced it, though.

How can you tell? My experience is that they act pretty crazy when perfectly healthy. Creepy creatures... |

Any coyotes down your end of town Spence?
A pack has been spotted following the powerlines up my way and with my 16yr old dachshund it's eye on him any time he's out.

After they closed the clam place under the bridge the rats went away and all the feral cats got old and died. Then the rabbits came back and the coyotes with them. Now most of the rabbits are gone and the coyotes have left...
A few years ago we had one so big in the neighborhood I thought it may have been a coy.
Used to get red fox as well but not in some time.... |

End stages. When they can hardly walk because the disease is paralyzing them. One died before the officer arrived---they tested it later and it was positive for rabies. It managed to crawl over to the edge of the woods before it croaked.
The ACOs have all been vaccinated. The one who responded asked if we or our dogs had gone near it. I was polite enough to just say no, without adding, "do I look like I'm that effing stupid?"  |
