Long Islanders warned to watch out for zombie raccoons

"Two raccoons found in recent weeks at the William Floyd Estate tested positive for Canine Distemper Virus (CDV). Residents of the community near the William Floyd Estate in Mastic Beach are advised to avoid potential human and pet encounters with wildlife, including raccoons."

"In late December, National Park Service staff observed two raccoons behaving uncharacteristically and also found dead raccoons on the estate grounds. The raccoons tested positive for canine distemper and negative for both rabies and avian influenza (bird flu). Canine distemper virus in raccoons is transmitted through close contact among their population and can spread to other predators including foxes and coyotes. Occasional, cyclic outbreaks can occur among raccoon populations. Raccoons exhibiting symptoms of distemper may approach people, be active during the daytime and appear lethargic or disoriented, stumbling or wandering about aimlessly."

"Though aggressive behavior is not a symptom of distemper, any raccoon may become aggressive if it feels threatened. Persons who notice a raccoon exhibiting unusual behavior should not approach the animal. While canine distemper does not pose a threat to human health, it can be transmitted to dogs. Dogs not vaccinated for distemper are at risk for a potentially fatal disease. Persons who see a raccoon behaving in the manner described above or find a dead raccoon should notify the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation regional wildlife office at (631) 444-0310. The William Floyd Estate grounds are currently closed to the public. The estate grounds are open seasonally from May 1 until the Sunday after Thanksgiving," says a National Park Service press release on some raccoon zombie shit going on in soon-to-be EPA Chief Lee Zeldin's hometown.
