Communities affected by the ban are located in the Montérégie and Estrie regions to the south and east of Montreal. 

The government says relocating an injured, orphaned or nuisance animal can spread rabies into new areas. 

Thirty-two cases of raccoon rabies have been detected in the province between December 2024 and June 12.

Residents of the Estrie and Montérégie regions are also asked to report sightings of raccoons, skunks or foxes that appear dead, disoriented, injured, or aggressive.
