I always encounter Raccoons living in my attic, even though I am still a kid we always encounter that problem here in Canada, Recently I noticed that my house is slowly getting destroyed because of these raccoons so I have no other choice but to Call The Critter Guy here in Canada.
Raccoons have a den, not a nest.
Raccoons will, on occasion, construct their nest in a cave for the purpose of giving birth.
Yes, if a raccoon discovers a nest of bunnies it will eat them.
Threatened to a house, Yes. Sometimes here in Canada raccoons are making holes and Raccoons can be a problem in residential homes as they nest high up off the ground or on roofs where there is no natural lighting. The Critter Guy here Provides services about raccoons and mostly he knows everything.
nest in trees nocturnal (sleep during day, hunt/wake @ night)
Raccoons will nest in hollow trees when available but also will den in burrows, culverts, in attics and crawl spaces in homes, etc. If threatened they will climb trees to escape harm.
Raccoons and Great Horned owls are a great threat to a Bald Eagles nest. Smaller birds could be considered predators as well.
No, they are not compatible and each would attempt to kill and devour the other. Fishers have been known to attack animals larger then themselves.
Raccoons are not birds. Raccoons are mammals.
Left unprotected, local dogs or raccoons will rob the nest. Sorry.
The plural of raccoon is raccoons.
I've been asking myself the same question this morning. Yesterday (and several days previously) there was just one small hole with yellowjackets swarming around it, and today there's a larger hole nearby, about 10" in diameter, containing and surrounded by broken layers of nest. At my house, I kind of suspect the large groundhog-looking rodent that lives under the shed, or possibly a stray cat. Seems odd that a cat would go digging for wasps, though.
