Raccoons are well equipped with claws and teeth and know how to use them for defense. Raccoons also can carry a number of disease, including rabies, and parasites that can be transmitted to humans. Raccoons can cause serious damage to a home. They have been known to tear off shingles in an effort to get inside a home to either make a den or steal food. They also cause damage to gardens, orchards and farm crops and will kill and eat chickens and other poultry.
