No, the eye of a raccoon (or any other animal, for that matter) does not glow in the night. It's an optical trick that makes the eyes of animals appear to glow in the dark, and it's related to the method used to photo graph them. See the related question below for more information.

The special thing about their eyes is that they can see in both night and day. The raccoon is primarily a nocturnal animal. The raccoon's eyes have a little mirror in the back of the eye. The light that comes during the night is absorbed by the raccoons eyes. Some light doesn't get absorbed. The mirror reflects the little light that doesn't get absorbed. When the light gets reflected the raccoons eyes have another chance to absorb it.

Overall, raccoons only have fair eyesight. They can, however, see much better in the dark.

Raccoons have marks around their eyes. It's just a natural thing to happen. If you have brown hair, that's just like saying "Why do you have brown hair?" Or "Why do you have eyes?" But robbers/burgalars have a mask around their eyes to imitate raccoons. Raccoons steal things out of people garbages. There's no REAL reason why raccoons have the marks around their eyes.
