Coyote
Canis latrans
Coyotes are adaptable wild canids found across deserts, grasslands, forests, farms, and cities throughout North and Central America. They hunt small mammals, birds, reptiles, insects, and carrion, and they also eat fruit when available. A coyote relies on keen senses, quick lunges, and a strong bite, often hunting alone or in loose family groups. Its varied yips and howls are among the most recognizable sounds of the North American night.
