Raccoons forage for food everywhere. They search for it in the environment - forests, streams, ponds and even in urban areas. In cities they search for food in dumpsters and trash bins.

Raccoons do not exactly "fish" for food but will use their sensitive paws to explore ponds and streams for food and will catch fish if they locate one.

Yes, raccoons will eat pond fish. Fish are part of a raccoon's natural diet. A fish pond is an easy target as it is usually small and the fish are easy to catch.

Raccoons are not particular about the fish they eat. They will consume whatever fish they can catch, including koi and goldfish in backyard ponds.
