Another rabid skunk has been discovered in the region — this time, it was found at Francis Lake in Georgian Bluffs.
But the good news is health officials say there was no human contact with the animal.
This is the 7th rabid animal report in Grey Bruce for 2010 and all are skunks.
Rabies continues to be a significant concern in Grey Bruce — with 20 per cent of all the cases reported in Ontario last year being in this region.
It is law that all cats and dogs over three months and all riding horses in Grey Bruce must be vaccinated for rabies.
Vaccinations protect pets from rabies and help protect your family if your pet is bitten by a rabid wild animal.
