Raccoon · State-by-state

Raccoon hunting regulations.

Raccoons are mid-sized omnivores (10-25 pounds) occupying every US state and most of Canada. They thrive in nearly every habitat with water access and cover — bottomland hardwoods, ag country, suburbs, even urban centers. Their nocturnal habits, climbing ability, and dexterous front paws make them a unique quarry that requires specialized methods.
