I am a wildlife rehabber in Indiana that specializes in our misunderstood masked ringtailed devils! When raccoons are scared they will "puff up" ( much like a cat does) to appear larger than they are so you will be afraid of them and leave them alone. They would much rather run from you then have a confontation with you. Their growl is a husky almost gurgling sound which if cornered could be followed by a painful bite! The babies if startled have a wootie sound which my team mates at I refer to as a "wootie woot" Hope this helps..
That "Whoop whoop whoop" sound you are hearing is the raccoon kits up the tree where the mother sends them when there is danger. That sound is like a homing signal so that they can find each other after they scatter from whatever the danger is. It might be a cat the mom is fighting with, or another raccoon or any number of things.
Coatis and ringtails are members of the raccoon family and they look kinda like them. Also, the tanuki or raccoon dog from Russia and Japan looks incredibly like a raccoon, but is actually a kind of wild dog!

All raccoon urine smells like Ammonia just like Cat urine. You can buy raccoon urine as a cover scent for hunting on Amazon and find out yourself.
Rabbits make a crying sound when distressed.
A sort of chuckle sound. Like a squirrel but in a slightly lower pitch.
The beavcoon is an animal that is a cross between a beaver and a raccoon. Its size is near that of an otter. It has the same vocal sounds of a raccoon which are hissing and high-pitched squealing noises.
Yes,it is. Making a loud noise can also scare a raccoon.

It was probally dark and misrabel. No one made a sound and was scared.
The A is a short A vowel sound and the OO is a long OO (long U) vowel sound.
Mother raccoons who are scared or disturbed will often move their young to a new den. A mother raccoon will move her babies one at a time to a new den, which can take several days. Baby raccoons are typically up and about in a few weeks but stay with the mother for the first year.

this may sound stupid but build your confidence up by practicing and if you really like him you'll do it.
