Opossums, raccoons, foxes, and most of you wild prey animals attack at night. Cats, dogs and hawks are most likely to attack during the day.

I talked to my uncle this morning, who is a local park ranger. He said animal control will not mess with the fox unless they think it is rabied. He said the only thing to do is to kill it. I know some here won't be happy with that answer, but if the opportunity comes up, that's what's going...

NC I think just has sorry animal control.
