Best Answer

Raccoons usually have a home territory that is marked with scent and feces. They rarely leave the home territory unless food has become scarce. If raccoons are removed from their territory and taken a great distance away, they will not be able to find their way back. However, neighboring raccoons will soon learn the territory no longer has an occupant and a new resident will move in and take over.

Raccoons are not big travelers if they are not being threatened. They usually stay in a specific area, and will only travel in a 3-5 mile vicinity of that.
