The biological potential of the raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides, Gray 1834) as an invasive species in Europe—new risks for disease spread?

open access: yesActa Theriologica, 2013
Invasive wildlife species have the potential to act as additional host and vector species for infectious diseases. The raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonides), a carnivore species that has its origin in Asia, was taken as an example to demonstrate ...

Raccoon Dogs Adjust Diel Visitation at Scent Marking Latrines to Reduce Human Disturbance in Urban Areas

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Human activity and development have a variety of effects on wildlife behavior, often prompting urban wildlife to adopt behavioral strategies—including spatiotemporal activity adjustments—that facilitate persistence in human‐dominated environments.

Severe hydrocephalus in a raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides). [PDF]

open access: yesJ Vet Med Sci, 2021
Hydrocephalus is one of the most common central nervous system malformations in domestic dogs, yet they are poorly documented and studied in wild carnivoran mammals. A pup of raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides) was rescued and brought to Wildlife Center. The pup showed generalized ataxia, a domed skull, and an open bregmatic fontanelle.

Predicted Relative Occupancy Probability of Raccoon Dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides) in Northeast Beijing Using Bayesian Occupancy Models [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We assessed raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides) occupancy in northeast Beijing using camera‐trap data. Occupancy was higher in nature reserves and northern areas, but declined with increasing human population and minor road densities, highlighting the impact of anthropogenic pressures.

The origin of the lower fourth molar in canids, inferred by individual variation [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
Background An increase in tooth number is an exception during mammalian evolution. The acquisition of the lower fourth molar in the bat-eared fox (Otocyon megalotis, Canidae, Carnivora, Mammalia) is one example; however, its developmental origin is not ...

Species distribution modeling for the invasive raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides) in Austria and first range predictions for alpine environments [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2017
Species distribution models are important tools for wildlife management planning, particularly in the case of invasive species. We employed a recent framework for niche-based invasive species distribution modeling to predict the probability of ...
