Diet selection in the Coyote Canis latrans. [PDF]
The Coyote (Canis latrans) is one of the most studied species in North America with at least 445 papers on its diet alone. While this research has yielded excellent reviews of what coyotes eat, it has been inadequate to draw deeper conclusions because no

Early life experience influences dispersal in coyotes (Canis latrans). [PDF]
Natal dispersal plays an important role in connecting individual animal behavior with ecological processes at all levels of biological organization. As urban environments are rapidly increasing in extent and intensity, understanding how urbanization ...

Mapping the expansion of coyotes (Canis latrans) across North and Central America [PDF]
The geographic distribution of coyotes (Canis latrans) has dramatically expanded since 1900, spreading across much of North America in a period when most other mammal species have been declining.

Fine-scale movements and behaviors of coyotes (Canis latrans) during their reproductive period. [PDF]
In canids, resident breeders hold territories but require different resources than transient individuals (i.e., dispersers), which may result in differential use of space, land cover, and food by residents and transients.

Space Use and Habitat Selection by Resident and Transient Coyotes (Canis latrans). [PDF]
Little information exists on coyote (Canis latrans) space use and habitat selection in the southeastern United States and most studies conducted in the Southeast have been carried out within small study areas (e.g., ≤1,000 km2).

Effects of urbanization on resource use and individual specialization in coyotes (Canis latrans) in southern California. [PDF]
Urban environments are unique because fragments of natural or semi-natural habitat are embedded within a potentially permeable matrix of human-dominated areas, creating increased landscape and, potentially, habitat heterogeneity. In addition, urban areas

PATHOLOGY AND DISCRETE TYPING UNIT ASSOCIATIONS OF TRYPANOSOMA CRUZI INFECTION IN COYOTES (CANIS LATRANS) AND RACCOONS (PROCYON LOTOR) OF TEXAS, USA. [PDF]
: Trypanosoma cruzi is a vector-borne, protozoal parasite of mammals. Infected humans, dogs (Canis lupus familiaris), and nonhuman primates may remain asymptomatic or may develop Chagas disease, most commonly characterized by lymphoplasmacytic ...

Home range size, vegetation density, and season influences prey use by coyotes (Canis latrans). [PDF]
To ensure reproductive success, Canis species establish contiguous mosaics of territories in suitable habitats to partition space and defend limiting resources.

Coexistence of coyotes (Canis latrans) and red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) in an urban landscape. [PDF]
Urban environments are increasing worldwide and are inherently different than their rural counterparts, with a variety of effects on wildlife due to human presence, increased habitat fragmentation, movement barriers, and access to anthropogenic food ...

High genomic diversity and candidate genes under selection associated with range expansion in eastern coyote (Canis latrans) populations. [PDF]
Range expansion is a widespread biological process, with well‐described theoretical expectations associated with the colonization of novel ranges. However, comparatively few empirical studies address the genomic outcomes accompanying the genome‐wide ...
