To report a suspected rabid animal, please notify the Office of Animal Services via the police non-emergency number, 301.279.8000. Common indicators of rabies include unprovoked aggression, a wild animal acting unusually friendly towards humans, an animal drooling heavily and an animal staggering or suffering from paralysis. A normally nocturnal animal seen during daytime hours, and acting normally, is not an indicator of rabies.

If the animal is in the City of Rockville, please call 240.314.8930. If the animal is on Park property, please call Park Police at 301.949.8010.
