Stay Safe: Wildlife Encounters in NC

Wildlife Safety Alert: Rabies, Ticks, and Snakes in North Carolina As temperatures rise in North Carolina, wildlife becomes more active, and experts share crucial safety tips. Breeding season means more raccoons, foxes, skunks, and even cats roaming around. Raccoons are the primary rabies carriers, so be cautious of any animals acting strangely. If bitten, try to locate the animal for quarantine and consider financial assistance for rabies shots. Ticks are another concern, so check yourself and gear after outdoor activities and use repellent. Snakes should be left alone, and if you find a baby animal, contact a wildlife professional before intervening. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
