Raccoon Distemper Outbreak FAQs

Below are answers to some of the questions we most often hear when it comes to canine distemper virus (CDV) risk and raccoons, and what to do if a raccoon has distemper.

 

Q: Do wildlife rehab centers take raccoons with distemper?

A: Many wildlife rehab centers may take in raccoons with suspected canine distemper, mainly to test and confirm the diagnosis.
