Best Answer

Raccoons fear any predator that could kill and eat them. The list would vary with the home range of the raccoon. It might include cougars, jaguars, bobcats, wolves, coyotes, alligators and, in some areas, large constrictor snakes. They are also quite wary of humans and dogs.

Because they are afraid the dog might eat them or hunt them. Dogs are predators and raccoons are prey for dogs.

Dogs are a big deterrent to raccoons. A yard with a large dog on patrol will deter most wild animals.
