DNA metabarcoding reveals that coyotes in New York City consume wide variety of native prey species and human food [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Carnivores are currently colonizing cities where they were previously absent. These urban environments are novel ecosystems characterized by habitat degradation and fragmentation, availability of human food, and different prey assemblages than ...

Interference competition between wolves and coyotes during variable prey abundance
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Interference competition occurs when two species have similar resource requirements and one species is dominant and can suppress or exclude the subordinate species. Wolves (Canis lupus) and coyotes (C. latrans) are sympatric across much of their range in

Risk from a top predator and forest structure influence scavenging by smaller carnivores
Ecosphere, 2023 Large carcasses often attract multiple carnivore species, so subordinate carnivores must weigh the reward of a profitable meal with the risk of being attacked by dominant carnivores.

The influence of snowmobile trails on coyote movements during winter in high-elevation landscapes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Competition between sympatric carnivores has long been of interest to ecologists. Increased understanding of these interactions can be useful for conservation planning.

Susceptibility of Wild Canids to SARS-CoV-2
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2022 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
