I was driving home from the grocery store, about 1:30 am, and I saw a Coyote strolling across the road, very close to where I live. I have been wondering about the drop off of stray cats in the neighborhood, and this might explain it: (Image): http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/af/Canis_latrans.jpg
This is the first time I have seen a Coyote, in the city limits.
We were on S. Padre Island Tx. this winter. On our 3rd floor balcony I would set most mornings in the pre dawn drinking coffee. Several times I would see a large coyote in the street or parking lot across from us. He/she was a biggun, as big as a med sized dog but thin framed. One morning I saw two, they looked identical.
The only way to get on the island is via a 3 mile long causeway or swim. I assume they were descendants of a very old population on the island.
