They have been tracking this coyote for a couple days in Central Park. It was finally darted and captured near Bacon's Castle within the last hour.

A wild coyote in Central Park hahaha. How the heck did it get there ?

Coyotes are increasingly settling in cities.

Coyotes are perfectly designed for urban areas.

They need some bears and wolf packs, too.

They say that they love wild life...so they should free the willie coyote.

When captured the coyote was found to be wearing ACME brand rocket shoes which the authorities believe helped him elude the police...

That is true. We have them here in central New Jersey which is still quite rural but I still wonder how the heck this thing got into Central Park which is in the middle of Manhattan. It would have had to travel quite a distance through the biggest city on earth to get there.

Coyotes can be extremely dangerous, especially to small children.

I'm thinking that when the coyote discovered Central Park it exclaimed, "Hallelujah! The Promised Land!"

He was probably just looking for the bar.

We have coyotes all over suburban Houston. See them pretty frequently on the roads (both dead and alive) around the Clear Lake area.
