The scientific name for raccoon is Procyon lotor.

Raccoon pregnancy typically lasts 63 to 65 days, but can be as short as 54 days, and as long as 70. Litter size is 2 to 5 kits or cubs, with larger litters occurring in harsher conditions.

Raccoons typically give birth from March to May, but in more northerly areas, as late as August. Mating is triggered by longer daylight, and this begins two months before birthing.

I couldn't find any specific details on the age when raccoons become fertile, but it appears that this happens quickly enough that a raccoon born one year can mate the next.

Their natural lifespan is roughly 16 years, and they'll mate every year.
