Reasons listed in veterinary medical records for dropping dogs during the 2018–2020 Yukon Quest. Orthopedic injuries are further characterized in the smaller pie. The records from 711 dogs from teams that would go on to finish the race are included. *Note that some dogs experienced multiple abnormalities so the number of reasons listed for dropping dogs exceeds the number of dropped dogs. Similarly, some dogs experienced multiple orthopedic injuries, so the number of injuries is greater than the number of dogs dropped for an orthopedic injury.
