Stay Vigilant During Raccoon Baby Season
Mating season for raccoons occurs in the winter. After a few months' gestation, females give birth in the spring. Raccoon baby season can last from March until early June, but most babies will be born in April and May. Raccoons are clever, resourceful, opportunistic creatures, and the females have a strong maternal instinct to protect and care for their babies. Therefore, they may take advantage of the warmth and shelter provided by human dwellings in which to bear and rear their babies. This poses a health and safety hazard for you and your household, but fortunately, there are options available for humane animal control Bowmanville.
