New Report On One Of RFK Jr.’s Animal Antics Is Absolutely Wild

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has a thing for all creatures great and small ― but this is getting ridiculous.

A purported diary entry shared with the author of a new biography revealed that the health and human services secretary sliced off the penis of a dead raccoon.

“I was standing in front of my parked car on I-684 cutting the penis out of a road killed raccoon, thinking about how weird some of my family members have turned out to be,” Kennedy wrote in the Nov. 11, 2001, diary entry, according to The Independent. “My kids waited patiently in the car.”

So now we can add critter castration to the growing list of Kennedy’s weird wildlife exploits.

But there’s an explanation for it.

Isabel Vincent, the author of “RFK Jr: The Fall And Rise,” told People that Kennedy severed the varmint’s genitals to “study them later.”

“You have to understand, Bobby wanted to be a veterinarian as a kid. His after-school job was at the National Zoo in Washington, D.C.,” Vincent said. “So he’s got a great love and interest in animals and a freezer full of roadkill, I’m sure, where he studies it.”

Dude already has some carcasses in his closet.

Kennedy once picked up a bear cub he saw killed by another vehicle and planned to skin it for the meat “because it was in very good condition.” He admitted to later dumping the animal in Central Park and staging the scene so it looked like a bicycle hit it.

Kennedy’s daughter Kick said her father once sawed off a dead whale’s head and transported it on top of the family’s minivan as it leaked smelly juices during a five-hour drive to Mount Kisco, New York.

“I’ve been picking up roadkill my whole life. I have a freezer full of it,” he said to reporters, per The Associated Press.

HuffPost has reached out to the Department of Health and Human Services for comment on the raccoon.
