The raccoon is a small ground mammal which scavenges for most of its food.

They can be found in temperate forests, temperate swamps, boreal forests, and cold bogs

Summary[edit]

Raccoons have 80% Toxic Environment Resistance rendering them highly resistant to environmental effects such as rot stink, as well as toxic buildup from non-attack sources.

Analysis[edit]

Raccoons are mostly there as small manhunter threats for your small manhunter events. For the first manhunter event in the game, raccoons are about the largest animal you'll get. They can also appear in the low end of caravan ambushes, or in the Noble wimp quest. During the winter, raccoons will often eat any of your exposed food you have available.

As hunting game, they yield about 50% more meat and leather than the smallest RimWorld animals (the hare, squirrel, and rat), but they still offer meager amounts of both. Prioritize other animals unless have nothing else to hunt or want a relatively safe target for training Shooting skill.

As tamed animals, raccoons offer practically no niche. They gestate slower and lose tameness faster than rats. Rats are also omnivorous grazers. You can find rats in every biome that raccoons appear in, and rats are more common than raccoons. As bait animals, rats are harder to hit due to their smaller body size, reproduce faster, and eat less.

Training[edit]

This animal can be trained as follows:

Guard:
Attack:
Rescue:
Haul:

*As of version 1.1.2610, all animals can be tamed. The percentage of likelihood of success depends on factors such as the Animals Wildness Percentage, Pawn Handling Skill, and others. More information can be found on the animals page.

↑ Coverage determines the chance to hit this body part. It refers to the percentage of the super-part that this part covers, before its own sub-parts claim their own percentage. For example, if the base coverage of the super-part is 100%, and the coverage of the part is 20%, 20% of hits would hit the part, and 80% the super-part. If the part had its own sub-part with 50% coverage, the chances would be 10% sub-part, 10% part, 80% super part.
↑ Target Chance is the actual chance for each part to be be selected as the target when each part's coverage has been taken into account(I.E. Neck covers 7.5% of Torso but Head covers 80% of Neck so it actually has only a 1.5% chance to be selected). This is not pure hit chance, as different damage types propagate damage in different ways. See that page for details.
↑ Note that capacities can affect other capacities in turn. Only the primary effect is listed. See specific pages for details.
↑ This is the part that everything else connects to to be considered 'connected'.
↑ If Moving drops below 16% a pawn cannot move.
↑ A Scratch attack that varies from animal to animal. Each front paw allows one attack.
