Well, at least they are finally humanely capturing the animals and getting
them medical treatment for the mange. Hopefully they'll catch the adult
and treat it too. I have to wonder if the mange is a widespread problem or
restricted to the one family group. If it is widespread, it surely does
make some of the newer flea/tick spot treatment products for domestic pets
that are also supposed to help prevent mange mite infestation seem well
worth the expense for those with pets in the area.

I am concerned that it may be widespread, as my neighbor believes she saw
such a critter come into my yard. Over the years we have always had a family
of fox in our area, and they often frequent my yard, I assume for the tasty
fish flavored water. This year, they have been strangely silent.
