Coyote

fightwns, this wonderful information should go in the "Notes" section of your spotting!

Hi Ava :)
No, this was a wild coyote caught and subsequently radio collared for a home range study. Studies like this provide a wealth of information relative to the life history of an animal including reproduction, dispersal and movement patterns, and territory size.
Although we've worked with a multitude of wildlife species throughout our careers, the coyote was our first and he holds a significant place in our hearts. (It's why our wildlife company's logo is a pouncing coyote).

Was this picture taken in a zoo?
