What's behind wildlife calls in Hernando
The 2020 Census counted almost 79% of Hernando's land as rural. Homes sit close to the Withlacoochee State Forest, the Chassahowitzka area and the springs coast.
Rabid raccoons
In 2025, Florida's Department of Health counted two rabid raccoons in Hernando, one off Ted Road near Brooksville and one near Spring Lake Highway. In June 2026, alerts followed a rabid cat in Spring Hill that a raccoon had attacked, and a rabid feral cat off Westwood Drive.
Forest at the back fence
FWC's Croom tract of the Withlacoochee State Forest covers more than 20,000 acres in Hernando and Sumter, along 13 miles of the Withlacoochee River, with deer, turkeys, fox squirrels and alligators.
The springs coast
Weeki Wachee, plus Chassahowitzka just north in Citrus, are among the region's first-magnitude springs. Homes near the springs and rivers live close to a lot of wildlife.

Brandon came out of his way to help remove a raccoon who had decided to use my front door mat for nap. Brandon was very polite and professional. He removed Ralph without issue and pretty quickly.

There's a first time for everything! Somehow a snake made it's way into our office building and chose my office to hang out. I called Pro Wildlife on Sunday and explained it to the tech. They arranged the appointment to come and remove it for today @ 9am. The tech Zak Brooks arrived and got the snake out very quickly! He was friendly and professional!! Definitely recommend and we'd use them again if needed! Thank you again!

Josh came out & removed a dead cat from my engine that had been there for over six months! Absolutely no one else would do the job and other places said they couldn’t even find the animal. Josh found it and removed it with ease. I can’t thank him enough!
