AI Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the 16S rRNA amplicon sequence data from feces of five different wild animal species in Japan, including wild boars, feral raccoons, and others.
- A total of 156 samples were collected from 58 wild boars, 60 feral raccoons, 9 wild Japanese badgers, 21 wild masked palm civets, and 8 wild raccoon dogs.
- While the dominant bacterial groups in their feces showed some similarities, there were also noticeable differences between the species.
Article Abstract
We report 16S rRNA amplicon sequence data from feces from 58 wild boars, 60 feral raccoons, 9 wild Japanese badgers, 21 wild masked palm civets, and 8 wild raccoon dogs in Japan. The predominant bacterial taxa in the fecal microbiota were similar in part but varied among the animal species.
