This is why we are having to eliminate foxes and raccoons that come around our place. I believe this attack was in Connecticut a couple of days ago.

Chickens attract raccoons and foxes. There are other threads in this forum about the pros and cons of killing these animals versus putting up fences and other deterents to keep these animals from harming chickens. Stopping foxes and raccoons from killing your flock does not stop them from attacking you, your family and pets. This has to do with chickens because if you have chickens around here, you will have predators coming into close proximity more often than people that don’t have chickens (or other animals for that matter.). They will come to where the food source is.What's this have to do with chickens?
Oh i totally get it, I am just always on the 2 sides to every story train lol.Hard to say. My daughter had one make a run at her one afternoon. She got in the house. I kill the raccoon. Ga DNR had it tested and it had rabies. My daughter was 13 at the time and did not approach the raccoon.
