Who can post a real photo of a coyote.

I live in rural central Oregon Coast and never see anything but the two does if I am outside around midnight and telling my Labs to hush. Well coming home one night a grey pointed nose with pointed ears crossed in front of my van so what was that. I know it was not a dog. He held his head down I thought it may be a fox but it was grey, It was not as big as a wolf or have that beautiful face of a wolf. It was smaller than my labs.

Another question when we are get to get out and travel I travel from 2am to 8 over the mountain ranges. How come I never see wild animals?

Only once a family of raccoons crossed in front of me and my son saw the last one stop and stare and just busted up laughing then I said oh oh and then thump. I still talk about that story with him and that was years ago.

Can somebody tell me if there are grey foxes?

I read of areas where bears are out of contol here on the coast but out here where I live nothing. I had the Forrest Ranger come and talk to my son about bears and that they have never been sighted out in our area (we live in the hills of the coast range). My son has a fear of bears afraid he will be attacked while sun bathing if not behind the fencing around our home.(he is a quad. so cannot run) Also we live on the Yaquina Bay just 4mi inland so I cannot figure out why I never see anything wandering around. Neighbors say my dogs scare everything off.

BTW sorry Kathie lee that dog was more loyal to you than that dog of a husband ever was. Should dump the husband and get more dogs.

Me just a worthless coyote
Me howlin' at the moon
Me love to sing and holler
Me crazy as a loon
Me not want job or duties
No church or Sunday School
Me just a worthless coyote and me
Ain't nobody's FOOL!
