We've had a pond for over 8 years and we've never seen this happen until today. We had a goldfish swim around with a slug in its mouth for over an hour. It looked like it was sucking something from the slug. Not a pleasant sight!

Raccoons are not particular and will eat any fish they can catch, including goldfish and koi from backyard ponds.
Any fish that can fit one in their mouth will probably eat them. All predatory fish (which is most fish) will try to eat them. Even a goldfish would pick at one.
Yes indeed they will. Most folks who have ponds with goldfish in place a cover of some sort to hinder/prevent the birds from getting their fish.

In the wild, common goldfish can be found in slow-moving or stagnant waters such as ponds, lakes, and rivers.
