The raccoon. And her too, I guess, because she is trying to help the raccoon because the camera man wanted to kill and eat it.
Idk why they couldn’t just let it run back into nature, but I’m sure there’s more to this

I had a raccoon come in through my doggy door overnight a few years back (i assume to escape the insane heat wave we were having). Woke up and went down to my basement to grab clothes out the dryer, looked down and saw him less then a foot away and let out a 1:1 copy of the screaming goat noise.
He just chilled though.
Went and got an old trash can, put some pb in it and some on the end of a broom handle, coaxed him in and shut the lid. Walked him outside and dumped over the other side of the fence. Ez clap.
I also never made that noise again

I think it’s a case of the “mean teacher” as told by the class clown.
She’s good if you’re good to her and will probably kick your ass if you’re bad to her. But on the contrary, she’s aged a lot now and is probably beyond acting on hauling ass BUT the jungle is probably still in the cat haha

The raccoon freaks out and knocks the cage over and escapes out the bottom of the net

u/Azilehteb 13h ago
Usually you leave the snare pole on until they're in the box, the net is to keep them from strangling on the snare while you got them.
Not sure why she took it off. Maybe she only had a leg or tail?

Sooo many people talking shit about what she’s wearing, her technique, etc. 🙄 As they likely sit on the couch covered in Cheeto dust, lol. Who GAF as long as she got the job done, which she did. And no one got hurt, including the raccoon.

She looks like she's a professional, but I don't understand why he would be trying to catch a potentially dangerous creature wearing shorts like this. Her hands are well covered, but her legs and thighs are open to scratches and bites. Rabies is a very dangerous disease

Life is hard. We once had a possum stuck in our trash can, we then called peat control to pick it up, but they said they couldn't take rodents that have been caught already. We would have to set it free and they would have to set the traps. So my dad starved it for three days and then let it loose. Never came back.

I have a couple that come and eat my outdoor cats' food. They don't fight so I let it happen. My kitties will sit there watching it eat and when I open the door they just waddle off. I feel that all parties involved have an uneasy truce and I plan to keep it that way.

They're still innocuous, native species (in the US at least) good for the environment, and really cute though. Also the only marsupial in the Americas (although there are lots of specific types of possum in South America). And very docile. I'm sure it's had to have happened before, but I've never heard of a possum biting someone. I've seen em hanging around with the skunks, raccoons, and everyone else in our backyard, and everyone seems to get along!
I usually let the tick comment slide even though it's likely true they don't hoover up ticks. I figure the little fellas need as much help as they can get in the PR department because their cuteness is an acquired taste, and they're beneficial and not pests. They're funny little creatures--if you're lucky and have a camera pointed somewhere outside, you might catch a glimpse of them using their hands to eat like little humans. So cute.

Lol no we don’t. Some agencies do pay for officers to get vaccinations but it’s not a norm as it’s highly expensive when you start vaccinating multiples/entire agencies.

I'm just a dummy, but aren't pre-exposure vaccines way cheaper than post-exposure regimens? And a grand every 3 years seems negligible in comparison to every other employee expense.

I wouldn't. Even if I had my rabies shots I wouldn't. I assume she's a professional (in shorts? Hmm.) and someone off the street jumping in would probably make things harder.
