... Almost unbelievable for around here... http://thechronicleherald.ca/Front/1149776.html According to the article, there's a slightly larger breed than in other places. We certainly have the normal-sized coyote around here. They look sort of like scruffy dogs, but not quite a dog. The only thing that scares me about them is that they might go after a local dog. My cat just goes up a tree and hisses. Sometimes they come in the back when I'm in the hottub, but they split as soon as I turn on a light. I saw one once on the freeway entrance ramp during the day, but it looked like it was sick or injured. The biggest problems we have are with local black bears (mostly the scare factor) and raccoons that get into everything, including the house once. -- Nom=de=Plume |

The lead one was quite big...like a large German Shephard but with a longer body. He looked a lot like that Wiley Coyote character in the cartoons. It would be quite scary to run into an aggressive one in the wilderness. |

It would definitely be scary! JT |

I can imagine that a mom would be quite aggressive to any perceived threat. -- Nom=de=Plume |
