Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis of individual Trichinella muscle larvae, collected from several sylvatic and domestic animals in Estonia, revealed concurrent infection of a racoon dog with Trichinella nativa and Trichinella britovi. This finding provides strong support for their taxonomic ranking as sibling species. These 2 species appear uniformly distributed among sylvatic animals through Estonia, while Trichinella spiralis appears restricted to the domestic habitat.

Abstract
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis of individual Trichinella muscle larvae, collected from several sylvatic and domestic animals in Estonia, revealed concurrent infection of a racoon dog with Trichinella nativa and Trichinella britovi. This finding provides strong support for their taxonomic ranking as sibling species. These 2 species appear uniformly distributed among sylvatic animals through Estonia, while Trichinella spiralis appears restricted to the domestic habitat.
