Space Use and Habitat Selection by Resident and Transient Coyotes (Canis latrans). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
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).
