The Raccoon Dog (Nyctereutes Procyonoides) As Definitive Host for Sarcocystis Spp. of Reindeer (Rangifer Tarandus)
A raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides; Family: Canidae), was given cardiac muscle of reindeer infected with S. grueneri, and started shedding Sarcocystis sporocysts 10 days post feeding. The sporocysts measured 13.9 (12.4–15.7) × 10.1 (9.2–11.2) µm, and were excreted for at least 16 days. The racc...
