Melanism of Coyotes (Canis latrans) in Florida
The American Midland Naturalist, 2015Abstract Occurrence of melanism in the coyote (Canis latrans) has been poorly documented. We collected 244 coyote carcasses throughout Florida during 2011–2014 and documented 18 cases of melanism (7.4%). Melanistic individuals were positively correlated with tree canopy cover (βcanopy mean = 0.11, se = 0.03, P < 0.001) and consequently observed only in

Scotopic sensitivity in coyotes (Canis latrans).
Journal of Comparative and Physiological Psychology, 1975The absolute scotopic limen for light intensity was measured for three 10-mo-old female coyotes. The methodology was similar to that used by Blough in determining psychophysical thresholds in pigeons. Three coyotes were operantly conditioned to depress one of two foot treadles, left or right, depending on the condition of the stimulus light.

The Microanatomy of the Coyote's (Canis latrans) Respiratory System
Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, 1983AbstractA Light, scanning and transmission electron microscopic study of the coyote respiratory system was carried out, utilizing ten coyotes of both sexes. The animals ranges in age from 8 to 24 months and were in good health. Comparison of the respiratory tissues of the coyote with other Canid species are made.

CONTRACEPTION HAS GONE TO THE COYOTES (CANIS LATRANS)
Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2013Coyotes (Canis latrans) are predators of livestock. Current management programs, primarily lethal control, are ineffective for long-term management of predation. Controlling reproduction of coyotes may reduce depredations if territory fidelity is maintained by breeding pairs.

Capillaria hepatica (NEMATODA: TRICHURIDAE) IN A COYOTE (Canis latrans)
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1973Capillaria hepatica (Bancroft, 1893) infection was diagnosed on the basis of histopathology in a juvenile female coyote (Canis latrans) from southern Saskatchewan. This is the first report of C. hepatica from this host and the second record of this parasite from a wild carnivore.

The Size of Eastern Coyotes (Canis latrans): a Comment
Journal of Mammalogy, 1993Thurber and Peterson (1991, Journal of Mammalogy, 72:750–755) analyzed data on body mass of North American coyotes, and speculated that the larger size of eastern coyotes was most likely attributed to a phemotypic response to enhanced food supply. We argue that data on food habits, cranial morphometrics, body mass in captivity, and behavior suggest ...

The Size of Eastern Coyotes (Canis latrans): a Rebuttal
Journal of Mammalogy, 1993Lariviere and Crete (1993, Journal of Mammalogy, 74: 1072- 1074) raised several objections to the hypothesis of Thurber and Peterson (1991, Journal of Mammalogy, 72:750-755) that the larger body size of eastern coyotes, especially those in New Hampshire, is attributable simply to enhanced nutrition.

Reactions of the Public to Urban Coyotes (Canis latrans)
The Southwestern Naturalist, 2011Abstract We conducted a survey in March 2007 of two neighborhoods in Tucson, Pima County, Arizona, where coyotes (Canis latrans) were present. The survey was conducted originally in 1992 in the same neighborhoods. We compared responses between years. Coyotes appeared habituated to humans to the point of approaching dogs on leashes; most humans did not ...
