Coyote diet in North America: geographic and ecological patterns during range expansion
Mammal Review, 2022 1 . Coyotes Canis latrans have expanded their geographic range by 40% in the last 120 years, raising questions about their ecological impacts in the newly colonised areas.

Isotopic ecology of coyotes from scat and road kill carcasses: A complementary approach to feeding experiments. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Scat is frequently used to study animal diets because it is easy to find and collect, but one concern is that gross fecal analysis (GFA) techniques exaggerate the importance of small-bodied prey to mammalian mesopredator diets.

Differential effects of human density, environmental health, and group size on urban coyote detection, boldness, and exploration [PDF]
Scientific ReportsComparative studies show that urban coyotes behave differently from rural counterparts. However, these studies often homogenize cities. Cities feature diverse pressures for wildlife, such as variation in human densities and environmental health, two ...

Coyote (Canis latrans) use of marine resources in coastal California: A new behavior relative to their recent ancestors [PDF]
The Holocene, 2018 Coyotes ( Canis latrans) are known to consume marine foods, but the importance and persistence of marine subsidies to coyotes is unknown. Recent access to a marine subsidy, especially if gained following apex predator loss, may facilitate coyote ...

Coyote (Canis latrans) Macronutrient Consumption and Diet Relative to Seasonality and Urbanization [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionDiet selection informs the health, fitness, and behavior of wild predators. Due to assumptions that vertebrate prey contains similar compositions of macronutrients (i.e., protein, carbohydrates, and lipids), whole prey items traditionally define ...

Coyote Attacks on Humans, 1970-2015: Implications for Reducing the Risks
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Beginning with the emerging pattern of urban and suburban coyotes (Canis latrans) attacking humans in southern California in the late 1970s, we analyzed information from reported attacks to better understand the factors contributing to changes in coyote ...

Using Resident-Based Hazing Programs to Reduce Human-Coyote Conflicts in Urban Environments
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 The concept of hazing (aversive conditioning) is often promoted as a tool for reducing human-coyote (Canis latrans) conflicts in urban environments.
