Raccoon Biology

Raccoons are most known for the “mask” over their eyes, brown thick fur, and ringed tail. They can weigh up to 40 – 50 lbs. Raccoons are found throughout the United States, and are even problems internationally. Raccoons are omnivorous, eating both plant and animal foods. Mating begins December – June, dependent on geographical area, with 3-5 young being born starting in March. Raccoons are nocturnal, but in a residential setting can make a daytime appearance if food is readily available. Family groups of raccoons will usually remain together for the first year, and then the young will seperate.
