There’s a great documentary available on Netflix called “Coywolf.”
Ping!
We used to call them ‘coys’.. Nothing new here.
I’ve seen it. This has been a “Current Environmental Issue” in the science competition my kids do for the last two or three years. It’s been interesting seeing the development.
We have coyotes here in the Charlotte, NC, area, but they seem to be standard breed.
They’re beautiful.
I first heard about these 40 years or so ago. It isn’t a new development.
We had one take a run at our Chihuahua night before last. Probably a Coydog. Mr. GG2 almost had to shoot it. They are very bold.
Worse things have infiltrated US cities.
Geez it is much harder to live with democrats than these animals
They have been near Pittsburgh for decades. Seen quite a few, Had a couple of minor run-ins. Warned my co-workers who like me worked overnight, early morning hours.
Didn’t believe me until there were several warnings released by local governments and my co-workers eventually were confronted.
Alone they can be cautious, in a pack not so much.
Lone wolves. 
Faisal Mohammad, who was killed by University of California Merced police, was described by at least one witness as smiling as he slashed at victims, called a loner by a fellow dorm resident and drew praise Thursday from a Twitter account associated with ISIS, which just last week released a series of videos calling for lone wolf stabbing attacks.
“May Allah accept him,†read a tweet in Arabic from a Twitter account that terrorism experts say has carried previous ISIS propaganda, just minutes after Mohammad’s name was divulged by campus authorities.
I didn’t mean to trash your post. I will watch. Coyotes are perhaps the most ingenious and stealthy SURVIVALISTS of any living animal, including humans. They will be around long after we’re gone.
That liger looks pregnant. I don’t care. Kill it. That thing scares me just looking at it.
I though hybrids were sterile. I have heard of hybrids from lions and tigers, but they are sterile. Mules don’t have baby mules. I will ask my local zookeeper.
Not so new....read about this years ago.
But yes, the species is adapting to urban environments. The new bread is stronger and more resilient.
With the coyote’s flight response and intelligence of the wolf, they are nearly invisible.
Tastes like ???
The ones I’ve seen in my backyard are as big as German Shepherds.
We had one in our back yard that appeared to weigh about 60 pounds.
