North Sarasota Raccoon Removal [News Blog] Hillsborough County Woman attacked by Raccoon

TAMPA (FOX 13) – A Hillsborough County woman has a mangled right leg — and three weeks’ worth of rabies shots ahead of her — after being mauled by a raccoon.

Gabrielle Luig says she had to punch the raccoon to get it to stop biting her, and then it even chased her back to the house. She’s telling her story as a warning to her neighbors in Citrus Park because the raccoon is still out there.

Luig says the county told her it can’t go looking for the raccoon because it would be impossible to single it out from other raccoons. But she says they should at least search her neighborhood because this animal is clearly rabid and attacked her for no reason.

BOARDMAN, Ohio (WKBN) – The behavior of some raccoons in the area have people concerned about their own pets. You’ve seen the photos circulating the national and international news — raccoons on their hind legs, teeth bared.

Earlier this week, the strange raccoons tested positive for a disease called distemper.

Humans and cats can’t get it, but your dog might be at risk. It can spread through the air and by direct or indirect contact with an infected animal.

Dogs join a list of several animals that can be infected, including foxes, wolves, skunks, coyotes and yes — raccoons.
