Renal neoplasia in coypus (Myocastor coypus).

Renal neoplasia is described in coypus (Myocastor coypus) from a feral population of the species in East Anglia. A population control campaign was started in 1962, and in 1981 this became an eradication scheme. From 1976 onwards, a research programme included the postmortem examination of 9400 wild caught and captive coypus.
