Dead squirrel. Put a box over it so that neighborhood kids wouldn’t play with it, but it is still next to the bush and next to the mailbox as seen in the attached image. The tail is visible from under the box.
Dead deer on the sidewalk.
Dead skunk in middle of road. Quite smelly!

Ms. Cunningham called with a concern about a raccoon in the Gentry Quarters dumpster and how she had been treated by Animal Control. She called the landlord, Health Dept, and Animal Control and was given the runaround at all 3 about the raccoon. She claims to have been told by Animal Control that "we're closed today and don't have anyone to help you." She's expressed concerns that the landlord leaves the JB's Disposal dumpster lid open, inviting in the raccoon, and HAND hasn't been helpful with the tenant-landlord complaint. She was quite frustrated -- not only to not get answers to her questions, or help with the raccoon, but to feel like she'd been brushed off and given the run around by so many departments. As soon as I hung up with Ms. Cunningham, I took a second call from another Gentry Quarters resident with concerns about the raccoon. Is Animal Control available to assist with the raccoon? Thanks for your help.
Neglected dog. Animal is left outside without food or shelter for up to ten hours a day while the owners are home or working. The animal is clearly distressed when left outside for extended periods of time.
Dog without visible collar spotted. Attempted to run into road but was scarred into someone yard, then ran up the block towards the Dillon from John Deere. Multiple witnesses attempted to corner to approach the dog, but the dog seemed really scared and ran away. No visible wounds, but the dog was whimpering and drooling. Last spotted running back towards the houses across from John Deere. Dark brown with light brown patches. Similar appearance to a German Shepard, but more likely a mix/mutt. 40-45lbs.
Our neighbor on the southwest corner of 6th and Ritter have a dead squirrel hanging from a live claw trap coming off of their roof. I know from past experience that claw traps like that are not allowed in town and are cruel to animals. Please do not tell them that I reported them.
There is an unidentifiable animal stuck in between the basement ceiling and the ground floor.
This neighbor walks his two very large dogs (black and tan Rottweiler and black Newfoundland) without a leash every day around 4-5pm. His dogs are aggressive and have attacked multiple dogs in the neighborhood both in Bryan Park and by going onto other peoples’ property. Please do something about this so that our neighborhood is safe.
