If so, pictures please. Pictures of common pets are welcome too. Bonus points for skunks.

    Strictly not pets, but I’m getting my 2nd of 3 pre-exposure rabies vaccinations this weekend so I can work with skunks and the other rabies vector species (bats, coyotes, fox, groundhogs, raccoons) next spring!

    While I haven’t been able to handle them, I have prepared their food. Out of all the baby animals formulas we have, skunk milk smells the best!

    I joined up to work with the owls and other raptors, but all the animals we get are fascinating in their own ways.

      What’s your experience with the vaccination so far? I’ve heard it can be pretty brutal in terms of side effects such as fever and more.

        I always love to hear it. It makes my day better to talk to you guys about owls and misc other animals too.

        Owl of the Year Qualifier starts sometime next month, so be sure to come play along!
