That is the last stages of Trump Derangement Syndrome, I’ve seen it before. No treatment available. Sad.

Yeh its called rabies. Racoon’s are one of the worst carriers.

On a warm (65°) Thanksgiving afternoon in 2009 we spotted a raccoon moving in a stupor in our driveway. We were living in a stuffy suburb then so instead of using my own firearm we called the police and an officer came out and did the job for me in our backyard. He bagged the critter and took it away. Since there’s never been a positive Rabies report issued for our area from that time I’d have to assume it was some other condition. But it did match what’s described in this report. Like a psych ward patient doing a Thorazine Shuffle down the hall.

Sounds at first to be distemper, common in raccoons.

Maybe rabies. Raccoons act like this when very hungry. Had a mama stand on her hind legs and scratch the ever living out of my back door one winter.

Canine distemper is lethal to raccoons. The symptoms are close to Rabies and distemper is highly contagious.
