'Zombie dogs' roaming near Chicago are infected coyotes, police warn | Fox News
Police are warning residents of a Chicago suburb to avoid helping "zombie dogs" because they are infected coyotes that could sicken other pets with the disease.
Hanover Park Police Department posted the warning on its Facebook page on Wednesday, saying the coyotes, usually nocturnal animals, are infected with sarcoptic mange that causes them to be active in the day.
āInfected animals will often appear āmangyā -- which looks just like it sounds. They suffer hair loss and develop secondary infections, eventually looking like some sort of āzombieā dog,ā the department said.
