Initial colonization of Long Island, New York by the eastern coyote, Canis latrans (Carnivora, Canidae), including first record of breeding [PDF]
Coyotes (Canis latrans Say, 1823) have increased their range dramatically over the past century. Formerly restricted to western North America, they now roam across the continent, in many habitats including large cities.

Killing Neck Snares Are Inhumane and Non-Selective, and Should Be Banned [PDF]
In North America, where fur trapping remains an active practice, killing neck snares continue to be used for capturing canids, particularly red fox (Vulpes vulpes), coyote (Canis latrans), and gray wolf (Canis lupus).

Evaluating behavioral syndromes in coyotes (Canis latrans)
As more research focuses on behavioral syndromes and their role in ecological and evolutionary processes, it is imperative that methods to test behavior are valid. The objectives of this study were to (1) assess behavior in captive coyotes (Canis latrans) using three methods [agitation scores, novel object test, and flight-initiation distance (FID ...

Generalized Net Model of Coyote Optimization Algorithm [PDF]
In the presented paper, the functioning of the coyote optimization algorithm (COA) is described using the apparatus of generalized nets (GNs). The COA is a population-based metaheuristic for optimization inspired by the Canis latrans species.

Susceptibility of Wild Canids to SARS-CoV-2
We assessed 2 wild canid species, red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) and coyotes (Canis latrans), for susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2. After experimental inoculation, red foxes became infected and shed infectious virus. Conversely, experimentally challenged coyotes
