Evaluating human–coyote encounters in an urban landscape using citizen science

open access: yes, 2021
Coyotes are ubiquitous in habitats across North America, including in urban areas. Reviews of human–coyote encounters are limited in scope and analysis and predominantly document encounters that tend to be negative, such as human–wildlife conflict ...

Coyote Range Expansion in the Human-Modified Tropics of Mesoamerica. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Coyotes have expanded their range into southeastern Mexico, Guatemala, and Belize, increasingly occupying human‐modified landscapes. This expansion is ongoing, with rising detection rates over time and records in both disturbed and forested environments, highlighting a paradox where anthropogenic change enables native carnivore expansion.

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).

Coyotes Choose Cover Over Concrete When Selecting Den Sites. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Reproductive decision‐making impacts fitness, especially in dynamic urban environments. Thus, we assessed urban coyote den site selection in Atlanta, GA. We found that coyotes made decision on both the site and structure of dens to mitigate fitness related risk and safeguard their young.

The intrepid urban coyote: a comparison of bold and exploratory behavior in coyotes from urban and rural environments

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Coyotes (Canis latrans) are highly adaptable, medium-sized carnivores that now inhabit nearly every large city in the United States and Canada. To help understand how coyotes have adapted to living in urban environments, we compared two ecologically and ...

Feeding ecology informs parasite epidemiology: prey selection modulates encounter rate with Echinococcus multilocularis in urban coyotes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
We investigated the role of urban coyote feeding ecology in the transmission of Echinococcus multilocularis, the causative agent of Alveolar Echinococcosis in humans.

Coyote Management Plans and Wildlife Watch: implications for community coaching approach to public outreach in southern California

open access: yesCalifornia Fish and Wildlife Journal, 2021
The majority of residents in southern California live in urban areas. Therefore, working with cities to promote tolerance and coexistence with urban wildlife is crucial to the conservation and management of native species.

Qualitative Study of Mental Health Improvements with Traditional Cultural Healers in North America

open access: yesEuropean Psychiatry, 2022
Introduction Traditional cultural healers -- their methods and their results -- are often invisible to conventional medical practitioners. When confronted with a result that does not make sense, we often ignore it.

A novel method based on coyote algorithm for simultaneous network reconfiguration and distribution generation placement

open access: yes, 2020
This paper presents a new method based on coyote algorithm (COA) which is inspired from the social life of coyotes for the problem of simultaneous network reconfiguration and distributed generation (DG) placement to reduce real power loss.

Species-specific interactions with apex carnivores yield unique benefits and burdens for mesocarnivores. [PDF]

open access: yesEcology
Abstract Mesocarnivores navigate a complex risk–reward continuum in ecosystems shared with their apex counterparts, balancing scavenging opportunities with risks of mortality. However, the risks to mesocarnivores in multi‐carnivore systems are not uniform; they can vary with specific apex–meso pairings.
