The other wildlife in New Jersey? I came home to a policeman standing in my yard yesterday. My first thought was "O my God, what happened to my husband, in-laws, aunt, parents, etc...." The next thought was "What did I do wrong? Did I forget to pay a ticket years ago, is there something wrong with my house? Do I need a permit for something?" I pulled in the driveway and the officer said, "Do you live here?" I paused before acknowledging that I lived there and he told me that he had trapped a possibly rabid raccoon under my canoe and he was waiting for animal control to come take it away. You have no idea how relieved I was to hear it was only about a raccoon. My daughter's were so excited they ran into the house to a good viewing area and watched and videoed the whole thing. I don't know where they get it from! :)
Poor guy was definitely injured. Animal control said they were unsure if he was rabid or just banged up real bad. :(
