Evansville wildlife context

Why Evansville Has the Dead-Animal Calls It Does

Evansville anchors the 315,000-person Tri-State metro (Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois) in Vanderburgh County, set on a bend of the Ohio River at Indiana's southwest corner. The Ohio River floodplain, Wesselman Woods Nature Preserve, Howell Wetlands, and Pigeon Creek create heavy raccoon, opossum, and deer pressure across the metro. I-69 and US-41 see fall deer-vehicle collisions, and the Newburgh, Darmstadt, and McCutchanville suburbs generate steady yard and attic carcass calls.

Common species calls in greater Evansville: Most-called species in greater Evansville: raccoon (Ohio River floodplain + Wesselman Woods edge + older near-downtown housing), opossum (riparian + suburban yards), deer (I-69 + US-41 rural edge in Warrick County), squirrel + skunk (suburban neighborhoods). Raccoon, skunk, fox, and bat are rabies vectors; opossum is not.

Pickup jurisdiction in Evansville: Evansville Animal Care & Control and the Street Department handle right-of-way carcasses on city streets.
