From NewScientist.com:

Evidence of the deadly SARS virus has been discovered in three exotic animal species being sold live in a Chinese food market. The virus found is "almost identical to the human SARS virus", according to Klaus Stöhr, SARS basic science research director at the World Health Organization. The virus itself was uncovered in six civet cats and one raccoon dog and antibodies to the virus were found in a badger known as the Chinese ferret badger.

Which just goes to show, sometimes it's best to take it easy on the raccoon dogs.
