The coyotes, bobcats don’t want dead stuff, but turkey vultures and crows find white trash bags worthy of a drive by. I haven’t seen any raccoons, but couple of armadillos wander occasionally

In 8 years south of 44 never seen a bear or heard of one getting into trash. There is a very occasional sighting but not a nuisance problem at all. People letting their dogs crap and not picking it up is more of a problem. Using black bags will solve the crows from getting into the trash.
