Raccoon advisory

They're easy to recognize, but to enjoy your stay at the park, common sense goes a long way.  A little advice:

bulletKeep a reasonable safe distance. A raccoon can carry distemper, mange, and parasites such as fleas, ticks and lice.
bulletA female raccoon with babies may become aggressive if she senses that her young are in danger.
bulletRaccoons are wild animals, not cuddly pets.
bulletDo not feed the raccoons.  Hand feeding is dangerous and encourages them to lose their fear of humans.  They will also search through trash and even get into food containers. Keeping trash and food containers secure will discourage them.
bulletPlease notify park authorities if a raccoon will not leave your picnic or camping area.

Facilities located on premise
