Influence of Food Resource Availability on the Activity Time of Raccoon Dogs (<i>Nyctereutes procyonoides</i>) in Urban Parks in Tokyo. [PDF]
Ecol EvolIn this study, we evaluated the relationship between raccoon dog activity time and food resources and the degree of urbanization in the western area of Tokyo, the most populated region of Japan. Results showed that raccoon dogs tend to increase their daytime activity and use artificial food resources according to the degree of urbanization, but this is
