On April 29, ECOs Alexander Shea and Brendan Dickson responded to a complaint about raccoon cubs being kept in an apartment in Manhattan. When the ECOs arrived at the address, the officers spoke with a couple caring for the raccoons. The couple alleged the raccoons were dropped off at their doorstep. After educating the couple that raccoons are a rabies vector species and prone to several diseases, a written warning was issued to the pair for possessing the raccoons without a Rabies Vector Species Wildlife Rehabilitator License. The raccoons were taken to a licensed rehabilitator where they are being given proper care and released when healthy and mature.

Ironically as a nuisance animal when trapped in your attic on Lawnguyland they can only be released on the same private property in which they were trapped (your backyard, not a local park) or "disposed of." Since firearms and even compound bow discharge are basically prohibited everywhere within 500 feet of another house, disposal is practically limited to death by spear or drowning.

on my local nextdoor.com app there was a spirited and totally ignorant discussion about a nuisance raccoon. ignorant until I got involved. Told everyone to ignore whatever they were being told by town, county and village "officials" as this is NYSDEC jurisdiction. It started when someone reported that a local exterminator, who should lose his license, was seen dumping off some live ones at the local park. One woman recounted that she was told her exterminator (different guy) had told her and her daughter that he had let hers go at the local lake (Caroons in Massapequa.) She was somewhat horrified when I told her that he probably let the raccoon go IN the local lake LOL.

Reminds me of that Shwarzeneggar flick. The one where he's holding the guy over a cliff and grilling him for information. When he finally gets back the the car and the girl asks he what he did, and he deadpans... "Aye let him goh."
