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.

Co‐occurrence of bobcats, coyotes, and ocelots in Texas
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Interspecific competition among carnivores has been linked to differences in behavior, morphology, and resource use. Insights into these interactions can enhance understanding of local ecological processes that can have impacts on the recovery of ...

Urban coyotes are genetically distinct from coyotes in natural habitats
Journal 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

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

Spatial ecology of coyotes in the urbanizing landscape of the Cuyahoga Valley, Ohio.
PLoS ONE, 2019 Urban landscapes can present ecological challenges for wildlife species, yet many species survive, and even thrive, near dense human populations. Coyotes (Canis latrans), for example, have expanded their geographic range across North America and, as a ...

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

Coursing the mottled mosaic: Generalist predators track pulses in availability of neonatal ungulates
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 The density and distribution of resources shape animal movement and behavior and have direct implications for population dynamics. Resource availability often is “pulsed” in space and time, and individuals should cue in on resource pulses when the ...

Coyotes as Reservoirs for Onchocerca lupi, United States, 2015–2018
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020 The Onchocerca lupi nematode infects dogs, cats, and humans, but whether it can be spread by coyotes has been unknown. We conducted surveillance for O. lupi nematode infection in coyotes in the southwestern United States.

Hunting interacts with socio‐demographic predictors of human perceptions of urban coyotes
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2019 Recent research suggests hunting participation interacts with other variables (e.g., bird‐watching participation) to shape attitudes about wildlife.
