D.
The arrows show feeding relationships / the flow of energy: arrows pointing to the raccoon indicate organisms (food) that transfer energy to it, and arrows pointing away show organisms that eat the raccoon. That means the raccoon takes part in several different food chains that overlap within one interconnected food web.
