While bearing an uncanny resemblance to raccoons, the Raccoon Dog is actually a canine. Native to Eastern Asia - its Japanese name (tanuki) is also quite popular - it was introduced to parts of the Soviet Union between 1928-1958. It is now abundant in large parts of Eastern Europe. Raccoon Dogs are good fathers, helping the females raise their litters. In your zoos, these furry bandits will feel most comfortable in forest and ice enclosures, where they take up six fields of space and can be kept in groups of ten.
Enjoy the game!
