The raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides) is an enigmatic member of Canidae (Carnivora), the group consisting of dogs and foxes.
The original distribution of Nyctereutes procyonides was in eastern Asia, although the species was introduced into Europe and western Asia during the second quarter of the 20th Century for the fur industry (Ward and Wurster-Hill, 1990).
Nyctereutes inhabits areas of forested streams, river valleys, and lakes where underbrush can provide adequate cover.

The snout of Nyctereutes is shortened in relation to other canids, and this leads to identification and systematic problems.
Nyctereutes is unique among canids in that it hibernates and undergoes a four- or five-month-long winter sleep from November to March (Ward and Wurster-Hill, 1990).
Although Nyctereutes is monospecific today, the genus was more diverse in the past.
