I see the raccoon and all I think is this.
Those poor raccoons. I don’t know what an autistic raccoon looks like, but these scientists should be ashamed of their… hmmm. I actually have no idea what the conspiracy behind animal vaccinations would be. Big science profiting just doesn’t fit right.
I used to work in veterinary medicine, and there are plenty of vaccine conspiracies in the pet owning community. They cause everything from seizures, to allergies, to autoimmune diseases, and more, according to some of these people. Breeders are a huge contributor to this, which leads to plenty of arguments with vets and pets running around unvaccinated.
It’s expensive to get litters of puppies vaccinated, and whackadoodle (I used “doodle” for a reason) theories are a great cover for why you are sending home a puppy with zero medical history outside of hand written worming dates. Unfortunately, it’s harder to educate people when it’s way cheaper to believe bullshit.
“All cats are autistic” or so the joke goes.
Don’t like being touched except on their terms, don’t like eye contact, very particular about food, will screech if overwhelmed.
For actual info and not the joke, unsure. Not a vet, I just ask the vet weird questions! Because I’m autistic.
I guess all those things are worse than your pet getting West Nile disease, rabies, distemper, or any of the various diseases pets can get.
Some horse people have stopped giving their horses vaccines because " Wild horses don’t need them"(wild horses don’t live as long dumbfuck) and west nile is going rampant. Seeing a horse with west Nile so bad they need to be euthanized is not something I’d wish on anyone. It goes neurological in them and causes loss of coordination and seizures.
Babe wake up, new forbidden snack just dropped
If my pets are any indicator of attempting this with animals they’ll gobble up the meal and leave the medication on the ground.
I snuck meds into cheese for my dog one time, and she is now forever suspicious of any and all cheese whether it’s cubed, shredded, sliced, whatever.
They dropped these in my mother in law’s suburban neighborhood. In her back yard. With no warning. My dog found and ate one, so it had me googling what the hell my dog had just eaten and wondering if she was going to die. Luckily we didn’t have any toddlers playing in the back yard.
