    I LOVE coyotes.

    Read "God's Dog" by Hope Ryden.

    It will forever change the way you view coyotes.
    "We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam

    "We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle

    "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien

    When I lived in Mississauga, ONT, there were signs stating to get out of the park after 11pm as the coyotes may attack. I always laughed when I saw the sign at 1am when I use to walk Cyrus the Staffy. They'll only go after the smaller animals, not a big dog or a human (unless they are ill, but that doesn't count IMO)... THere are also a lot of people who feed them in the winter as they keep the rodent populations WAY down in the summer.... but sadly there is an illness going around right now that killed a lot of them, coons, & skunks

    I'm really not against them living in cities, as we need them & they are usually anti social, well except the semi tame ones that stupid people create/feed by hand... idiots...

    We had a coyote den up along the line fence last summer. This winter when we went out snowshoeing the coyotes watched us while we watched them. We use to have one come up onto the porch & eat the dog food. They eat & kill baby calves in the spring along with cats. We had a rescue dog years ago & she was enticed into the woods by a pack of coyotes. She came out alive but with scratch marks all over her body & a big hunk of skin torn of her shoulder area. The coyotes are crafty animals.

    You know, a lot of people around here say that coyotes are ugly. I never understood that, as I have away thought them to be very beautiful. You're lucky to be so fortunate to see them every day!

    I don't think we have them in Florida but I'm not sure. I've never seen one in person. Amazing pictures, Sandie.


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!
