Both. a raccoon eats bugs, eggs from animals like chickens, falcons, and snakes, and other prey, while carnivores like mountain lions eat it.

Or neither. I consider raccoons as scavengers. Just like turkey vultures they find whatever food they can.

Predators of raccoons include coyotes, bobcats, great horned owls and, in some areas, bald eagles. Raccoons also fall victim to humans through hunting and being hit by cars.

Raccoons may be a prey item for any larger carnivore such as a wolf, bobcat, coyote or cougar but they also prey on small animals such as insects, mice, fish, lizards, frogs,, crayfish, etc.
