Yes. They love berries just about as much as most humans do. Raccoons are omnivorous, eating both plant and animal foods. Because raccoons are mostly active at night, they can be common in the area but rarely seen. In the spring and early summer, their natural diet in the wild consists primarily of insects, crayfish, fish, fresh water mussels or clams, and frogs. As the summer passes, their diet also includes all types of fruits, berries, nuts, acorns, vegetables, and grains. During the latter part of the growing season, raccoons can cause severe damage to garden crops, especially sweet corn and tomatoes.
