DISEASES          

There are over 60 different kinds of mammals in the State of Illinois.  All wildlife is capable of spreading diseases or parasites to pets or humans.  Because of the reduction of natural predators many animal populations continue to grow.  Due to many animal populations growing, interaction becomes more frequent and the spread of disease between these animals becomes easier.  Because of the growth of suburbs into their natural habitat wildlife is forced to co-exist with humans.  Unfortunately many animals decide to make peoples’ homes or property into their dens increasing the chances of spreading diseases to humans. 

All urban wildlife can be dangerous to humans no matter how cute they look or how much we would wish to have them in our backyards.  Wildlife carries a large number of diseases and parasites that can be spread to pets or humans and even their droppings can be dangerous. 

Contact with wild animals between humans and pets should be avoided whenever possible.  We are not advocating not going to the zoo or taking a walk through a forest preserve.  Simply use common sense when dealing with wildlife.  Wash your hands, keep small children away from possibly infected areas, and hire a professional when needed.
