Oh, yes.
Raccoons can appear docile, and act docile, but you never know what’ll set ‘em off, startle them, and if you do - all bets are off. My grandmother was bitten by a raccoon once - was in the hospital for a week, on antibiotics, and more antibiotics once she was out. Don’t mess with ‘em. I think they get along with my cats OK because the cats leave them alone - as I said, there’s plenty of food, and nobody needs to fight over it.

My sister was bitten by a moose once.

Sorry, but it had to be done.
