Roadkills as a Method to Monitor Raccoon Dog Populations [PDF]
Animals, 2021 The raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides) is one of the most frequently killed species on Lithuanian roads. As an invasive species, up-to-date knowledge of population size, trends and spatial distribution is critically important both for species assessment and for the planning of control measures.

Seroprevalence of antibodies to Neospora caninum in dogs and raccoon dogs in Korea [PDF]
The Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2003 Neospora caninum is an important cause of abortion in cattle, and dogs are its only known definitive host. Its seroprevalence among domestic urban and rural dogs and feral raccoon dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis) in Korea was studied by indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT) and by the neospora agglutination test (NAT), respectively ...
