Young raccoons are vulnerable to losing their mother and to starvation, particularly in long and cold winters. The most frequent natural cause of death of a American raccoon population is distemper, which can reach epidemic proportions and kill most of a local raccoon population. In areas with heavy vehicle traffic and extensive hunting, these factors can account for up to 90% of all deaths of adult raccoons.
