it's probably just that the FL panther, a good example of what you say, is a *cat* (spotted rarely in area I used to live in) and the only coyote I ever saw (met, actually, on a deserted trail in Yosemite) looked like a medium-sized *dog*, except for the look in his eyes. I'm not sure what you're getting at. A coyote is a canine, so it could certainly look like a dog. But I don't understand the relevance of that. Joyce |

I don't like and have never been able to relate to canines The Spitz chasing me, at age 2, into the barbed- wire fence might have something to do with that.....LOL. |

Central Park Coyote
wrote in message oups.com... dnr wrote: I am having trouble generating sympathy for a wild animal that probably ate his weight in stray cats before anyone noticed his presence...... More likely ate ten times his weight in rats and mice. Those and garbage cans are the commonest sources of food for coyotes. Chak Coyotes just don't live where I came from (probably too d*** hot) but raccoons get in garbage cans all the time....smart little critters. I just assumed they are smarter than coyotes, but guess I was wrong thinking that. I didn't know coyotes could get into garbage cans. The one I met on Yosemite hiking trail eyed me for a minute then hauled *** back the direction he'd come, while I ran back to my companions screaming about the "wild dog" I'd seen, LOL. They do look like dogs. Like a medium-sized, really scroungy dog with big ears. I've only seen one in the daytime. We were in the back yard and Happy (the dachshund) took off chasing it, with a pig ear in his mouth I'd just given him. He's lucky the coyote ran instead of kicking his butt and taking his pig ear away from him. Sherry ROFL! |

Chak In New York City the palates are refined from fine dining establishments. There are literally hundreds of really good places to eat and a dozen of the best on this side of the planet. It's a nice life for those who are wealthy. FYI, Mr. Coyote dined on duck in the park, at least his last supper there. The look in his eyes were quite soulful while reclining in the cage. He was caught and he knew it. The carefree days of youth and abandon are over now. If they release him in a preserve up north, things may go well for him, assuming the older coyotes don't hassle him as they probably did just outside NYC. OMG - gourmet coyotes! Well, what did I expect? |

But hey, they're still virgins ... Maybe it will result in a repeal of sodomy laws by a grass roots effort from the young christian right.

Oh, I see. You aren't fond of dogs, so it's harder to have sympathy for a canine. OK, I'll buy that. That must have been a pretty frightening (not to mention painful) experience for you at that age!

No arguments there, but my mom was frightened to a degree that was a bit ... disconcerting. LOL! Must be German moms, my mom was the same way. But I got no BC. I was just kept in all the time with way too strict curfew rules. And threatened to be disowned if I ever got pregnant as a teen. -- Britta |
