When people find ill and injured animals their first instinct is to give it food and water. If an animal is extremely cold, hot, dehydrated, emaciated, ill or injured, this can quickly overload the animal’s system and cause it to die quickly. That’s why we wrote an article about how to care for extremely emaciated, dehydrated, ill and injured animals.

Here are some instructions if you find ill, injured, burned, singed animals in or around the fire area. Animals involved in fires have respiratory injuries due to the inhalation of air heated to a temps over 122F° which results in burns of the mouth, oropharynx and upper airway. The main cause of death on these patients is smoke inhalation associated to the fall of oxygen concentration due to carbon monoxide and dioxide during combustion.

Safely get the animal into a pet crate, container. Your safety and the safety of the animal are important. If possible, do not touch the animal. Lure the animal into a pet crate with a tiny piece of food. You can also corral the animal into the crate. If you cannot safely get the animal into a crate, stop and call a wildlife rehabilitator or animal control.

Cover the crate with a towel and place in a quiet place away from other animals or humans. Contact a wildlife rehabilitator or animal control. Do not give food or water at this time unless instructed by a wildlife rehabilitator or veterinarian. If you can't find a wildlife rehabilitator or veterinarian, follow instructions in the article linked above and the one below.

The below link is an article for veterinarians, vet techs, wildlife rehabilitators about medical management of burned animals.

Who is Ezra James, Ezra Lee James who lit a raccoon in a trap on fire for eating his mangoes?

Ezra James, Ezra Lee James, Palm Bay, Florida, raccoon, fire, burned to death, murder, mary cummins, animal advocates, brevard county, court records, jail, arrest, jamaica, 88 years old, felony, charged, aggravated

UPDATE: 12/13/2018 Defendant Ezra James pleaded nolo contendere to one count of cruelty to animals felony level 3 penal code 828..12.(2). Adjudication of guilt was withheld. Ezra is now a qualified offender and must give DNA. He was also fingerprinted. He's under supervised probation for 18 months. He must pay $609.92 in fees. He's been declared indigent. You can light a live raccoon in a trap on fire and let it suffer and just get a slap on the wrist. Shameful.

10/11/2018 Case continued at request of defendant. Early resolution scheduled for Dec 13, 2018 at 8:30 am before Judge Rhonda Babb Div 10 at Moore Justice Center.

There will be early resolution. Sounds like he's making a plea deal. I believe he will appear Oct 11 2018 to accept a plea deal. I have no idea what the plea is. I think he will plead guilty to a lesser offense and pay a fine and court costs. They may also sentence him to three years in jail with all time waived if he doesn't commit another crime while on probation for same time. That's just my guess.

The probably cause document has just been unsealed. It's below redacted as a two page pdf. Ezra is listed as retired. It states as follows,

"On August 16, 2018 Ezra Lee James did commit the offense of Animal Cruelty resulting in death by intentionally and willfully capturing a raccoon, pouring gasoline on it and setting it on fire while still in a metal trap. This resulted in the cruel death of the raccoon; when I arrived on scene the raccoon had been pulled out of the cage and was laying on the ground. The raccoon was still alive, completely burned, skin was pulled back from the feet from the burns. I had to put the animal down with my gun to end its suffering."

ORIGINAL: Ezra James trapped a raccoon which he believed was eating his mangoes. He admitted to then pouring gasoline on it lighting it on fire August 15, 2018 at night. He left the raccoon in the trap. The neighbor saw it and called police. Police humanely shot the raccoon to death to put it out of its misery. He was arrested at his home August 16, 2018. He paid bond and was bailed August 17, 2018. James, Ezra booking number 4857028.

Ezra Lee James was born February 12, 1930 in Jamaica. He currently lives in Palm Bay, Brevard County, Florida. He was arrested August 17, 2018 at his home. He was charged with a felony, cruelty to animals in the third degree. There are many other cases against him in Brevard County.

Ezra James was charged with a felony animal cruelty in the third degree. Sentence is no more than five years in jail and/or $10,000 fine. I personally believe Ezra James has some senility and has seriously lost his judgment. He admitted to his crime on video for the media. I think he should be sentenced to counseling, community service, a fine and probation. Jail time for an 88 year old man makes no sense.

Here it the court record as a pdf. It's also below as text but it falls apart.

In 2006 Ezra James went bankrupt. At the time he owned three homes and three cars which included a Cadillac Fleetwood, Lincoln Towncar and a 15 passenger Ford 350 bus. All homes were in foreclosure. He is listed as a transportation provider for the Port Authority of Florida. In 2006 he was a taxi cab service for E & J Transportation making $771/month and unmarried. He collected social security in the amount of $600/month. His bus was repossessed. He tried to get it back. His creditors fought the stays and discharges. His debts were discharged in 2007.
