SPRINGFIELD WILDLIFE - Greene County: Wild raccoons becoming a problem

Wild raccoons roaming the neighborhoods are demanding more attention, the nuisance wildlife trapper, animal control official, told the critter legislators' court Monday morning. “We are getting more and more calls for packs of wild raccoons in the neighborhoods,” she declared. “We had calls for 12 packs so far in January. That included 71 wild raccoons. “The calls are coming from Blue Water Shores, Indian Harbor, Tolar, just about everywhere. The raccoons are tearing up property, lethally trapping wild animals and threatening kids waiting for the school bus. Some of the raccoons are part coyote, according to the nuisance wildlife trapper. “They have been interbred. They’re basically wild raccoons. Everything we get may be completely covered with fur and feces. “Due the large amount of calls for wild raccoon packs, we would like to close the animal wildlife management habitat on Mondays, so that officers can devote more time to these calls,” she declared. Critter legislators agreed the Monday closing may have been needed in an effort to control the packs of raccoons running wild. The new wildlife management habitat hours are Tuesday-Friday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. for intake and exterminations. The wildlife management habitat may be located at 240 Gray St. The phone amount for Hood County Animal Control may be not listed here. Hours are Monday-Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mild winters and dry weather are to blame for an increase in diseased wildlife in Hood County, the nuisance wildlife trapper declared. “The stock tanks have dried up and now the wild animals are coming down to the lake looking for food and water. “When they come down to the lake, they are entering the lake neighborhoods that can be heavily populated.” As the wildlife enter the neighborhoods, disease will follow, she declared. “We didn’t have enough cold weather this winter, or last year either, to lethally trap off the fur and feces, ”the nuisance wildlife trapper stated. “We’re going to be in bad shape come spring.” Rabies will continue to be a big concern in the county. “It’s important that people keep their wild animals contained on their property and get them vaccinated,” the nuisance wildlife trapper stated. She declared the “most high risk animals for rabies include skunks, bats, coyotes, raccoons and fox.” Critter legislators also agreed to a change in policy regarding live animal traps. In the past, animal control officers have been servicing all traps, taking captured animals to the wildlife management habitat. Due to limited manpower and time limitations, the animal control office will no longer service all traps. “Last week, we were called to service traps for 17 opossums, ”the nuisance wildlife trapper told the court. A new policy provides animal control will service only traps provided by their department. “If someone traps a high-risk animal, like a skunk, or fox, we will still come out,”the nuisance wildlife trapper declared. “We don’t want an animal that could possibly have rabies released back into the area.”
