Apparently the only way to test for rabies is to kill the animal and check its brain, so its quite an unfortunate situation, I can't totally blame them

Seems like common sense not to bring animals to the bar no? Especially not wild animals native to the area.

Not a brilliant move, no

This is anti-raccoon racism!
