Raccoons are omnivores and feed on a variety of animal and plant material. They consume large amounts of invertebrates such as insects, crayfish, worms and grubs. They also eat small mammals, such as mice, baby rabbits, snakes and lizards. They love fruits, vegetables and nuts and are particularly fond of acorns or sweet corn. Nestling birds, bird eggs and reptile eggs are also eaten. In more urban areas they feast on garbage left by humans or pet food left outside.
They act as bratty children who insist of getting their own way. They do not take discipline well and cannot be taught good behavior. If they do not get their way, they can become vicious and nasty to deal with.
Give them a basic diet of a high grade dog chow and add to that various fresh fruits and veggies.If you have access to them, treat them to live earthworms or crayfish. Raw eggs are also a healthy addition now and then. Present them with a good variety of healthy choices and avoid human garbage and junk food.
