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...

Coyotes can be extremely dangerous, especially to small children.

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

From the news story:

The coyote, nicknamed Hal by Parks Department staffers, may have wandered into the city from Westchester County, perhaps swimming across a river.

Wouldn't a coyote being around be helpful to keeping down the rodent population (rats, mice)?
