  • Title: Raccoon Roundworm (Baylisascaris procyonis) Undetected in Endangered Key Largo Woodrat (Neotoma floridana smalli) Endemic Range.
    Author: Crandall KA, Pease BS, Simmons AL, Adamovicz LA, Cove MV.
    Journal: J Wildl Dis; 2023 Jul 01; 59(3):536-538. PubMed ID: 37170425.
    Abstract:
    Raccoon roundworm (Baylisascaris procyonis) negatively affects woodrat (Neotoma spp.) populations but is not known to occur in the endemic range of endangered Key Largo woodrats (Neotoma floridana smalli). Rectal swabs from 23 raccoons (Procyon lotor) in Key Largo were screened for raccoon roundworm by PCR. All tests were negative, suggesting continued absence.
