Put an electric fence around your garden. If not, the only protection would
be to enclose the garden with chicken wire (on top too). Raised a baby
raccoon many years ago and they are very intelligent, resourceful animals -
sweetest pet I ever had. Use a low voltage; just enough to scare them
away - otherwise you're in for a losing battle. Good Luck.
