Raccoons eat a variety of plants and animals. They will eat... grains, acorns, wild berries, fruits, frogs, clams, mice, rabbits, white grubs, beetles, duck eggs, chicken eggs, sweet corn, peanuts, bread, peanut butter, cat food, dog food, fiddler crabs, fish, grapes, baby birds, snakes, and even marshmallows. They will pretty much eat what is available.

Raccoons are attracted by any form of food, be it a lawn infested with grubs or earthworms, a garden with fruits and berries, or poorly maintained premises with lots of mice or other small animals. They are also attracted to unsecured trash cans containing food wastes as well as to pet food left outdoors at night.
