Are raccoons brave or shy

Answer 1

Raccoons should be somewhat shy, and run from humans if approached (though, as with any other animal, they may fight when cornered). A raccoon should only be out at night, for they are nocturnal creatures (which means that they hunt and are active at night). If you see a raccoon out in daylight, you should get away from it. A raccoon out in broad daylight is often rabid, therefore you must keep away!

Answer 2

Raccoons are generally shy animals and try to avoid confrontations with humans unless they have learned to rely on humans for food. Leaving food out for wild raccoons is a big mistake as serious problems with the animals could emerge in the future.

Answer 3

Raccoons are generally considered to be opportunistic and adaptable animals, displaying both brave and shy behaviors depending on the situation. They can be curious and bold when scavenging for food, but may also exhibit shyness when faced with unfamiliar stimuli or threats.
