For this study, the Procyon cancrivorus m1, m2, PM4 and M1 teeth were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy in order to observe dental microwear patterns. Tooth of subadult, adult and senile individuals were studied. The results showed different microwear signs with pits and cross scratches abundance.
