7 Foods You Can Feed Raccoons

Fruits: Raccoons have a natural affinity for fruits such as berries, apples, grapes, melons, and bananas. These can be provided fresh or occasionally as treats in moderation.

Vegetables: Raccoons can also consume various vegetables, including sweet corn, peas, carrots, and leafy greens like lettuce or spinach.
