No, raccoons do not eat trees. However, they will eat fruits and nuts provided by trees. They are particularly fond of acorns.
Adult raccoons are much too large to be carried off by an eagle. An eagle might take a young raccoon, however.
Coyote, fox or a dog will kill a chicken and carry it off. Most large predators will make the kill and carry the bird elsewhere for consumption. Animals such as weasels, raccoons etc will often eat the kill on the spot thereby leaving evidence (feathers).

Yes, a full grown rat will take an egg, chick or young chicken given the opportunity. Most rats are now big enough to take on an adult hen and if there is a rooster with the flock the rat would lose.
Raccoons have sharp claws and teeth and will use them to fight off attackers.
They will most likely be released in the territory of other raccoons where they will not be welcome. They may be driven off or killed by the resident raccoons.
Well you take a clever and just start hacking their heads off
Hawks are much too small to carry off an adult raccoon but might take a new born baby.
