Recursive use of home ranges and seasonal shifts in foraging behavior by a generalist carnivore

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Coyotes (Canis latrans) colonized the southeastern United States over the last century as large predators, including the red wolf (Canis rufus) and eastern cougar (Puma concolor), were extirpated from the region.

Individual animal geographies for the more-than-human city: Storying synanthropy and cynanthropy with urban coyotes

open access: yesEnvironment and Planning E Nature and Space, 2021
Recent efforts within geography to deconstruct anthropocentric readings of the urban and explore the city as ‘multispecies’ or ‘more-than-human’ face substantial methodological challenges.

Reviving ghost alleles: Genetically admixed coyotes along the American Gulf Coast are critical for saving the endangered red wolf

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2021
The last red wolves were captured along the Gulf Coast in 1980, where they hybridized with coyote, to establish the captive breeding population. However, red wolf ancestry persists in local coyotes and could be leveraged by genomic innovations to support

Memory-Based Quantity Discrimination in Coyotes (Canis latrans) [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Behavior and Cognition, 2014
Previous research has shown that the ratio between competing quantities of food significantly mediates coyotes‘ (Canis latrans) ability to choose the larger of two food options.

An Illusion of Barriers to Gene Flow in Suburban Coyotes (Canis latrans): Spatial and Temporal Population Structure across a Fragmented Landscape in Southern California

open access: yesDiversity, 2023
Carnivores with large home ranges are especially vulnerable to habitat fragmentation. As coyotes (Canis latrans) are often found living in highly modified landscapes, it is unclear how urban and suburban development impact gene flow between their ...

Parameter estimation of electric power transformers using Coyote Optimization Algorithm with experimental verification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In this work, the Coyote Optimization Algorithm (COA) is implemented for estimating the parameters of single and three-phase power transformers. The estimation process is employed on the basis of the manufacturer's operation reports.

Urban coyotes are genetically distinct from coyotes in natural habitats

open access: yesJournal of Urban Ecology, 2020
Urbanization is increasing throughout the world, transforming natural habitats. Coyotes (Canis latrans) are found in highly urban, suburban, rural and undeveloped mountainous habitats, making them an exemplary model organism to investigate the effects of

Risk from a top predator and forest structure influence scavenging by smaller carnivores

open access: yesEcosphere, 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.

Mapping the expansion of coyotes (Canis latrans) across North and Central America

open access: yesZooKeys, 2018
The geographic distribution of coyotes (Canis latrans) has dramatically expanded since 1900, spreading across much of North America in a period when most other mammal species have been declining.
