Common raccoon dog

The raccoon dog is a sturdy, fox-like canine from East Asia with dark facial markings that resemble a raccoon's mask. Unlike most dogs, it climbs trees and naps through winter. Though native to Asia, it now lives wild in parts of Europe after people brought it there for its fur.

• Climbs trees like a cat despite being a dog relative
