IntroductionThe raccoon (Procyon lotor (Linnaeus, 1758)) is native to North and Central America but has been introduced to numerous regions worldwide, where it is commonly maintained in zoological collections and increasingly as a companion animal. In Georgia, raccoons were introduced during the Soviet period and have since established local feral populations[1]. Highly adaptable, raccoons reproduce and disperse efficiently, particularly in riparian habitats such as those in the Lombardy region, where released individuals have become naturalised[2].Their introduction has had ecological, economic, and health implications. Native fauna sufer from predation, particularly nesting birds and amphibians, while agricultural and urban infrastructure are frequently damaged. Raccoons are also recognised reservoirs of zoonotic agents such as Baylisascaris procyonis , rabies virus, canine distemper virus, Trypanosoma cruzi , and agents of mange and histoplasmosis. Despite these risks, no structured management strategy for feral raccoon populations exists in Georgia[2].Ovariectomy (OVE) is a routine sterilisation procedure in domestic dogs and cats, particularly in Europe[3]. Laparoscopic OVE (lapOVE) has been well documented in canines[4, 5] and offers distinct advantages over open surgery, including reduced tissue trauma, postoperative pain, and recovery time, along with enhanced visualisation[6].However, laparoscopic sterilisation techniques have not been described in raccoons. The present report details the first successful two-port laparoscopic ovariectomy in a raccoon, highlighting the anaesthetic protocol, surgical approach, and postoperative outcome.
