Most of the statements, if not all, that I have seen making such assertions appear to date back to a vet's comment to the effect that it affects multiple members of Mustelidae and he then listed some, and incorrectly listed raccoons within that list. >

You apparently read the same information that I did. However, it was not a comment by a vet. It was written by, I believe, a researcher. I contacted Danee, who authored the brochure I saw with this information. She, in turn, contacted the original author, who confirmed that the raccoon information is correct. I was copied on all the emails but no longer have them. Perhaps Danee can clarify.
