> Surely, not a decade has passed between have there been NO domesticated raccoons in the US?

An animal of wild parentage that was raised by humans is tame but not domesticated. So no, there's aren't really domesticated racoons, only tame ones.

Domestication is a process that takes many generations. It is a selective breeding process more than anything else. Animals that are 1 generation away from wild ancestors aren't domesticated, by definition.

And the last category is feral animals, "that live in the wild but are descended from domesticated individuals.".
