Raccoons, Procyon lotor are not rodents. They are from the order Carnivora and not Rodentia, and thus do not have the incisors that rodents have to gnaw through most materials. For a raccoon to chew its way through plastic would take a Herculean effort and is far as the raccoon is concerned, it's just not worth the effort.

Yes, rodents could chew their way through the sides of the pool somewhat easily. However, most rodents do not have any motivation to do so. They don't eat toads. Plain and simple.
