Age determination of the raccoon dog in Finland [PDF]
We compared the age determination using the relative width of the pulp cavity in the lower canines and the one using the ossification stage of the epiphyseal cartilage of the radius and ulna with the most reliable method, namely, that based on the incremental lines in the tooth cementum in order to find a quick and reliable method for identifying young

Severe hydrocephalus in a raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides).
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.

Comparative development of Echinococcus multilocularis in its definitive hosts
The comparative development of Echinococcus multilocularis was studied in its definitive hosts, the fox, dog, cat and raccoon dog, beyond the pre-patent period to 90 days post-infection. All host species, apart from cats were susceptible to infection and
