Welcome to /r/coyote!
This is a subreddit pertaining to anything related to Coyotes (otherwise known as Canis latrans).
Coyotes move within a landscape of attentiveness. I have seen their eyes in the creosote bushes and among mesquite trees. They have watched me. And all the times that I saw no eyes, that I kept walking and never knew, there were still coyotes. When I have seen them trot away, when I have stepped from the floorboard of my truck, leaned on the door, and watched them as they watched me over their shoulders, I have been aware for that moment of how much more there is. Of how I have only seen only an instant of a broad and rich life.

I confess to a sympathy for the coyote that has grown until it lives in the deepest part of my nature.

Coyote or Coywolf?
Ran into these guys about a month ago. I live in NE Illinois. They look like coyotes but they were MASSIVE. They were inches taller than my 65lb dog (usually they’re a few inches shorter). While it’s stated that wolves don’t inhabit this area, there have been numerous sightings. Sorry for the potato video quality in advance!

Hunting Voles
“Junior” one of 2 adolescents in a pack of 4 that frequented our field. Quite a high success rate with the voles. Wet from all the snow diving

Communication question
I heard a small group of coyotes the other day. One was howling and 2 others were like yiping and yapping. What would be the reason for it? I barely see or hear them ever

Yote with Llamas
Thought y’all might appreciate and maybe have insights to these interactions between these llamas and our resident coyote.
The Yote seems solitary and they all seem quite amicable? The Yote never seems hostile. It kind of seems like the coyote is rooting around where the llamas poop. Could the poop contain some undigested alfalfa as a snack?
Is it to early in the year to suspect pups are around? Could she be using the llamas opportunistically as protection?

Visual scars and quite the size, this coyote didn’t run when photographed, rather lifted his leg and peed to say “this is my line”

My Turn!
A few days earlier someone in the neighbourhood told me “I missing a sandal off the deck, I’m sure it’s those rascals!”
That evening just before sunset, rascals confirmed lol

Did I scare the coyotes off effectively?
So never thought too much about coyotes till I got a toy poodle lol. There’s been quite a few coyotes lately in the area a lot more than in previous years (and lots of “missing cat” signs posted up as of late :/). One time one was pressed against our fence, like a week ago and another did the same a day later.
Today, dad let the poodle out. He’s not the type of person who takes this stuff seriously, so I looked out to do a warning check and there was a coyote right next to our fence. Not pressed up against but just sitting there. My poodle ran right up to it as I then chased right after poodle and just screamed to try and scare it off. At the same time, the neighbours’ lab and Pomeranian were out and the lab started barking like I’ve never seen it do before. Coyote then ran off but as he did SO DID another one that was hiding behind a tree next to the visible one. They just ran over to another tree and continued to stay there for a while as the lab stayed barking and eventually after 5-10 minutes they dissipated.
Since they didn’t run away entirely and just hid was wondering if this is strange/means they’re desensitized? Will screaming not be enough next time, should I have done more? I’m fine with coyotes as long as my poodle doesn’t become their next meal.

Hopped over a beaver dam and made a quick turnaround (the woods on the near side of the dam have been pretty flooded lately)

Duded looked healthy
Spotted yesterday. My cattle dog actually sniffed em out and led me towards him. Another one ran around the other way and was behind us. Pretty sure we were near a den.

Pack size max?
I put a camera in the back of my yard a few weeks ago and have seen a lot of action, but this was the most at one time. Are packs normally 10-11 large? Most times they go by they’re walking in-line, but occasionally they run by like this. I assume they’re chasing a rabbit that my camera didn’t spot.

Coyotes Can Make Puppy-Dog Eyes!
Whenever I see a wolf, or purported wolf, I always try to find it's eyebrows. Wolves lack eyebrows. If the questionable canine has them, they're a hybrid. I just now had the same thought about coyotes. They have so many more expressions than wolves. True foxes also lack eyebrows muscles, (I dunno about the false foxes, tho. I stumped the AI, too), but seem to be very expressive in spite of their lack.
