We have an obviously sick raccoon wandering the neighborhood showing classic signs of rabies. I've been on the phone all day trying to get someone who deals with this sort of thing to come out and do something before someone gets hurt. It's stumbling around, drooling and very aggressive if approached. I've contacted animal control, the local police department, Department of Natural Resources, exterminators, the mayor's office, and all have said not their problem and to just trap it myself. WTF?

You might also try a phone call or two to stress the immediacy of the danger if the animal really is rabid.
