Yesterday late afternoon a large Raccoon came lumbering across my backyard that is on the Beach, where there is very little vegetation. The Racoon's left front paw was curled up. I have never seen a Raccoon in my yard before. I don't know for sure, but I think Raccoon's generally don't come out in open spaces like this one did. He went under my deck and I don't know where he went from there. Racoon's can carry Rabies, and I am not saying this one was rabid, but he was acting strange. Everyone with Cats and Dogs make sure your animals are up to date on their Rabies Vaccine.
