No way
This is, excuse me, bull sh**!
I don't believe this for one moment.

When you can arrange your affairs to go fishing, forget all the signs, homilies, advice and folklore. JUST GO.
I believe everything I see on the internet, don't you?
True or not, it's conceivable--Snopes.com says it's a true story. Many animals can survive severe injuries, at least for a while--think of badly shot game animals that get up and run away. Their spleens store a large quantity of blood that is available immediately to replace hemorrhaged fluids and fluids displaced by hydrostatic shock. This coyote may have survived and died later from internal injuries after escaping. I could see where it could have been hit in just the right way that the flexible plastic bumper cover would cushion the impact as it went between the cooling vents and into the front of the vehicle--lucky, yes, but conceivable. Humans are, by comparison to most animals, pretty flimsy creatures, yet we dream up ever faster and more dangerous ways to convey ourselves through space and time.

You aren't thinking, we have all seen coyotes survive far worse than that. Remember? That's when the road runner goes "beep beep"

Ok....sure, I believe a car going 75mph and hitting a 65 lb. coyote and the coyote just curls up sweet as can be in the radiator. Why wouldn't I believe that?? I mean I really do, not a problem! Geez...

I agree with you Bobby. Who hits an animal that big and doesn't stop to check for damage to the car at least? According to the report they stopped twice for fuel? And didnt' look? Who they think their fooling?

After all, any animal that can survive repeated drops from a tall cliff while holding on to an anvil (from Acme) has to be pretty tough.Bobbyg,
