We’ve been getting more reports of wildlife showing signs of distemper, with raccoons, skunks, and other animals acting strangely in yards. If you see wildlife acting odd, please leave them alone! If there’s been no contact with pets or people, simply give the animal space to avoid stress or risk.

Do you know why there has been an increase? Thank you for keeping us informed 😊
Delaware Public Health District, the posts I have seen about a possible raccoon with distemper say they have contacted ODNR and they say they cannot do anything.
