I loved the close up footage of them eating insects and the family of raccoon dogs! Do they have korean names as well? I didn't think it was mentioned on the vid.
Unforunately, almost every fur coat you see in the US comes from these animals. Raccoon dogs are the number 1 animal used for their fur (oftentimes labeled as faux fur!). They’re being anally electrocuted in China.
I find cute that they are also monogamous, since it's kinda rare for mammals. Also Tom Nook from Animal Crossing is based on a Tanuki, a.k.a racoon dog :)
I am Korean and I often have night walk myself around 1 to 3 am. I live in quite industrialized city but almost everytime I have night walk, I see them, but never seen them during the day time.
I love racoon dogs 🦝 (from 🇰🇷) Recently, the urban populations have increased so i see them almost everyday near the park. They're one of the top predators in Korea. neoguri(🦝 in korean) in Seoul usually feed on insects, wild fruit, and mostly.. cat food😂. At 6 pm they come out clumsily from the bush, force cats away for the feast
They're also a massive problem in Mainland Europe. Ever since the Soviets thought it was a good idea to introduce them in the Eastern Bloc back in the late-1920s for their tough skin and fine quality fur after observing the old-ROC, Imperial Japanese and occupied-Korea from a distance. In fact, the Tanuki/Neoguri problem worsened after the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Eastern Bloc and the Soviet Union in the late 1980s, as they spread throughout Europe to places as far west as Central and Southern France and as far south as Northern Italy. For example, since 2009, the Swedish Riksdag EXPLICITLY orders people to shoot Tanuki ON SIGHT because of how destructive they can be. Similar policies exist in the Benelux and Eastern Europe due to the Tanuki's successful ability to out-breed many creatures as a result of the abundance of food and water sources in Europe. In the UK, Tanuki are illegal to own as pets due to their aggression and difficulty to tame and train. And people wonder why the United States went to great levels to exterminate Tanuki in the hundreds of thousands back in the 80s when they were hastily imported from Japan.
Tanuki is Japanese. The raccoon dog lived not only in Japan but also in the East Asian continent and moved from the continent to the island. To call it Tanuki is to ignore other East Asian countries. Call they raccoon dog or Korean raccoon dog as Noguri
interesting that they are called racoon dog in English, it makes sense given the masked face, but in German they are called "Marderhunde" (marten dogs)
This is the species most known for being skinned alive, it's an infamous short video that did the rounds a few years back... a horror film if ever there was one
In Mainland Europe, they HAVE to be killed on the spot because of how aggressive they are towards the native wildlife, especially Foxes, Weasels, Badgers and other canids and mustelids. Sweden explicitly orders hunters to target and shoot Tanuki ON SIGHT ever since 2009 for this reason. So while they pose zero threat to humans, for other animals, they are a maurauding horde if left to their devices.
Unfortunately, almost every real furcoat you see nowadays is the skin of these animals. Raccoon dogs are the nr. 1 animals used for fur. They’re being skinned alive. So don’t wear fur please
This was the first animal that I saw in real life before knowing what it was. We thought it was a cat then no, then a dog then no, then we freaked out haha Googled it the next day. Was like seeing a Pokémon.
너구리개가 아니라 그냥 너구리 입니다. 미국 라쿤은 너구리가 아니에요. 라쿤이 너구리하고 비슷하게 생겼다보니 라쿤을 너구리로 번역하고 도그를 개라고 번역하신거 같은데, raccoon은 라쿤이고 raccoon dog가 너구리입니다. 라쿤하고 너구리는 생김새만 닮았지 전혀 다른 종이에요. 너구리는 개과고 라쿤은 라쿤과로 아예 과 단위에서 전혀 다른 종입니다. 실제로 전문 번역가들도 이 차이를 몰라 "너구리개"라는 존재하지 않은 단어를 만들어 쓰는데 틀린겁니다.
Do you never safe out in the wildness you never get comfortable I see why these animals move around because it's always something out there lurking there's always going to be competition
Raccoon there and Raccoon dog here are complete different species. They just happen to be look alike. Raccoon dog, "Tanuki" in Japan, is native in some parts of Asia. (By the way, American raccoon is called "Arai-guma/アライグマ" in Japanese, which means "washing bear.")
Racoons 🦝🦝🦝🦝 city Dumpster inspector A guy in Japan 70s ? Oh these wud make cute pets $ imports & breeds 10-20 years L8tr japan is over run by racoons . AUSTRALIA Govt you just try importing anything 🚨 no squirrels no hamsters etc all dangerous 😅💨 it took Canberra 2 years to catch 800,000 Feral Minor birds the Key was putting a mirror in the Cage Traps xd👍
@@animalaction1456 they aren't dogs either. That'd be like calling foxes wild dogs. They are canine but that doesn't make them dogs. Just like otters are mustelids like ferrets but that doesn't mean they are wild water ferrets.
Canidae are dog like carnivores all members within the group being the most related to dogs in the suborder Caniformia. But, raccoon dogs are a lot less closely related to dogs than wolves and they aren’t literally dogs 🐶. Raccoon dog ancestors split long before dogs existence and are one of the most oldest members of canidae, only member to hibernate too but join extreme snowstorms. Great apes are primates like monkeys but they are not monkeys
A pack of raccoon dogs must be extra vigilant as they move from the forest and into new territory for food. What was your favorite part of this video?
Ah yes, tanukis
The night appearance 😋
Spider vs tiger batrfly

@Nat Geo Wild ok thanks
They get fluffy and chonky in the winter time
Gud to know
ohh that explains it
Wow, never heard of these little guys before, pretty cool ty
We're glad you enjoyed the video, Olivia! 🙌
Same! Very interesting!!!
@Nat Geo WILD nice documentary!

Theyre huge. Yea hybridz

Mario first wore is the Tanuki suit in super Mario brothers three
I am Korean and I often have night walk myself around 1 to 3 am. I live in quite industrialized city but almost everytime I have night walk, I see them, but never seen them during the day time.
I forget what they are called in Korea. Neogguri?
Where I am from it is silly to go on a casual walk at these times due to risk… I am a little jealous. Anyways to your point, a nocturnal canine?
Less known but beautiful animals!
I love racoon dogs 🦝 (from 🇰🇷)

Didn't know they existed. Theyre cute but can be fierce little critters. 🙂❤🙌

Top 5 most underrated and misunderstood wild canids species are:
1. Maned wolf
2. Ethiopian wolf
3. South american bush dog
4. Raccon dog
5. Dhole
The baby tanuki looks so cute 🥰❤
Whenever they called chopper racoon dog in one piece I thought it was just for fun and fictional

@@tanukibeth Not foxes either, raccoon dogs
Beautiful ❤😍
Amazing

Yahoo news sent me to this today for once it was Rogan
Many of them living in Europe too.
In Florida we call these raccoons lol
These animals are canines as foxes and have no connection with real racoons.
@@identytarysta2892 it was sarcasm
Raccon dog = fox + raccon + civet
Do watch snakes in USA? Pls l love your videos
Im big fan of NGW 🤗
Cool video. Never heard of a racoon dog.
They look Cool.

Happy the father was okay
Awwww they cuteee
I didn't know about this species. I thought it was just raccoon over there.
Reminds me of a Badger and Fox.
They are essentially a kind of fox despite dog in the name.
Actually, they're not foxes, they're just the closest living relatives of the old world foxes, specifically all species except for the red foxes.
우와
Raccoon dogs in korea
Y’all can keep those raccoons 🦝 over there those ain’t no dogs 😅
Yes they are
Eyyyyy raccoon floor gang aoh

Yes they are called tanuki aka raccoon dogs
Chopperr?
Yes, racoon dogs live in entire East Asia and Europe.
@@identytarysta2892 Yes they are in Europe but they're considered an invasive species which were bred for fur, so not native.
Chopper?
I always love racoon
Ive not heard of these bfor😲
Do you never safe out in the wildness you never get comfortable I see why these animals move around because it's always something out there lurking there's always going to be competition
I like seeing the people that have pet raccoon dogs ! ‼️‼️
Keep those these animals as far away from Mario.
🦝 are native to North America then how they are in south Korea?

The Chinese hunt everything, they don't care
Smdh theyll be extinct bfor the world even knows about em
Evident? Or just anothet bs westerner?

These boogers are highly defensive and will cause rabies at a moment’s notice. Don’t touch wildlife!!
I came here after these animals were suggested as the potential cause of the SARS-COV2 outbreak. I don't buy it.
Chopperr
A hybrid of Pangolins and Bats. Known for carrying unknown deceases.
who is here after knowing, they are responsible for covid??
Hakuna matata
Can they be bred with domestic dogs?
No. They are closely related to foxes. I do wonder if they could breed with foxes but it's an unusual question so google has nothing on it.
