That is incorrect. Raccoons come out during the day for many reasons.. Females come out during the day to forage for food because it is warmer during the day. If she left her babies unprotected during the night they could become hypothermic and die. She must eat if she is to continue producing milk.

If a raccoon is out in the day does it have rabies?
No, they often come out during the day seeking a new shelter if something happened to their home, or if they are greatly in need of water. True possums, which are those found in Australia, do not have rabies as there is no rabies in Australia. Opossums of North America, a quite different animal, have body temperatures that are generally too low to harbour the rabies virus, although there are always exceptions. Note that when threatened, opossums will often "play possum" mimicking dead or sick animals - to the point of mimicking the appearance of having rabies - even if they are not infected. Since they are primarily nocturnal, when people encounter them during the day the opossum is more likely to feel threatened and thus act sick. This may be one of the reasons that people think the possums they see during the day are infected with rabies.
