Craniology of Nyctereutes procyonoides (Carnivora) based on materials from Ukraine by Denys Lazariev

“…Specimens from the territory of Ukraine have a more elongated mandibular ramus and a larger area of the coronal, articular, and angular processes, while skulls from the species’ native range have a larger angle between the mandibular ramus and the coronal process, which in turn has a greater inclination relative to the articular process and a smaller area of the angular process. Skull size is often larger in animals in introduced populations, but it also depends on environmental conditions, nutrition, and interspecific competition.…”
