As coyotes have been expanding their range, they have been found in some unexpected places.  Two coyotes have been caught in Central Park, NY over the last ten years and several coyotes currently live in Rock Creek Park in Washington, DC.

How to see Coyote

Coyote, like many predators, explore their territory at a decent pace, hoping to stumble upon unsuspecting prey. When you see a solitary critter crossing a field in broad daylight, it could well be a coyote on the hunt.

Names Canis latrans
