Distemper in OR Raccoons
« on: February 20, 2011, 10:22:08 PM »
Has anyone else heard about the outbreak in Clatsop County?  Canine distemper is contagious to dogs, raccoons, coyotes, and skunks.  We aren't hunting or trapping enough.

I saw something about it in the Lewiston Tribune not too long ago.  If I remember right they said something about 12 or so raccoons had come down with it and they were warning people to keep an eye on their pets.
