Gee, I can't imagine why that would terrify her! Smart mom.

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.

Yeah, too oblique a statement. 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.

More likely ate ten times his weight in rats and mice. Those and
garbage cans are the commonest sources of food for coyotes.

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.

ROFL!

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?

There are entire websites devoted to remaining a technical virgin by
virtue of using yet another orifice ... one that is much more prone to
rips and tears, and therefore much more likely to allow transmission
of diseases. 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. Hey, a girl can dream =P

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!
