Occurrence Type: STAY AWAY FROM THE RACCOONS !!!!!
Occurrence Number: GR – 119
Details
The West Grey Police Service would like to remind the public that if you see a raccoon on your property keep your distance.
A raccoon will defend itself if it feels it is threatened. Do not approach any animal, especially when it is with its young or appears injured. Do not feed any raccoon. Raccoons tend to feed at night. If a raccoon steals food from your pet’s dish, feed your pet during the day and bring the bowl inside at night. Use metal or heavy plastic trash containers. Keep the lid tightly fastened to keep odors from escaping. Use bungee cords or ropes to put a weight on the lid so raccoons can’t open it. Keep barbecue grills clean or stored in a secure place.
If you see a raccoon in the yard, turn on the lights and make a noise to scare it off. If you see a raccoon in the yard, turn on the lights and make a noise to scare it off. Seal any openings to buildings like sheds and garages. Even though rabies is common in local raccoons, keep pets under control at all times and vaccinate your cats and dogs against rabies.
