The coyote is a wild canine that is closely related to both the North American wolf and fox. They are typically much smaller than a wolf and are usually closer in size to domesticated dogs. However, the way they carry themselves is remarkably similar to a fox. They range in color, and location and have a very wide spectrum of communication. These wild canines may be considered a threat to many, but they are especially important to our Earth and are incredibly fascinating.

Although coyotes are much smaller than your average wolf, they are often referred to as prairie wolves. On average, an adult female coyote can weigh anywhere from 15-40 lbs. An adult male coyote can weigh anywhere from 18-44 lbs. Although they are closer to wolves than they are domesticated dog breeds, they are still relatively small in comparison. The average North American wolf can weigh up to 180 lbs. Coyotes may be smaller, but they are still amazingly fast and strong for their size!

Coyotes are native to North America and can be found anywhere in Canada, Alaska, and Central America. Most coyotes live on the Great Plains; however, their range has expanded greatly across both America and Canada. These are versatile creatures that can pretty much adapt to any environment. It can be warm or cold in the location that they settle in. They can use almost any habitat; however, they prefer prairies and wide-open plains.

Although they are wild, coyotes can also live amongst humans in big cities. In fact, they live in virtually every large city in America. This is due to their excellent adaptation, and more food sources, but also because humans have reinforced their behavior. Since they are closely related to the average domesticated dog, humans often want to approach and feed them. Because of this, city-populated coyotes are often less likely to attack. It is highly recommended not to feed these wild animals. It can upset the balance of their natural diets. If you suspect one is in need of help, call your local animal control.
