Coursing the mottled mosaic: Generalist predators track pulses in availability of neonatal ungulates

open access: yesEcology 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 ...

Fine‐scale movements and behaviors of coyotes (Canis latrans) during their reproductive period

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
In canids, resident breeders hold territories but require different resources than transient individuals (i.e., dispersers), which may result in differential use of space, land cover, and food by residents and transients.

Mammal Community Responses to Increasing Puma Activity in a Suburban Preserve. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Using nine years of camera‐trap data from a suburban preserve, we found preliminary, convergent evidence that increasing puma activity coincided with changes in black‐tailed deer, bobcat and coyote activity. Evidence for changes in brush rabbit and grey fox activity, as well as woody plant density, is more tentative and warrants further study, but ...

An altered microbiome in urban coyotes mediates relationships between anthropogenic diet and poor health

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Generalist species able to exploit anthropogenic food sources are becoming increasingly common in urban environments. Coyotes (Canis latrans) are one such urban generalist that now resides in cities across North America, where diseased or unhealthy ...

Low secondary risks for captive coyotes from a sodium nitrite toxic bait for invasive wild pigs

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2019
An acute toxic bait is being developed to deliver micro‐encapsulated sodium nitrite (SN) to stimulate severe methemoglobinemia and humane death for invasive wild pigs (Sus scrofa), thereby providing a new tool for reducing their populations. During April

Microbiomes in Canidae

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Because of their range expansion across North America, coyotes (Canis latrans) now occur sympatrically with numerous other predator species, including red foxes (Vulpes vulpes).

Prevalence and geographic distribution of Babesia conradae and detection of Babesia vogeli in free-ranging California coyotes (Canis latrans)

open access: yesInternational Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2022
Babesia species are intraerythrocytic piroplasms that can result in disease characterized by hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia. Of the 5 species that are known to infect canids in the United States, Babesia conradae is most frequently diagnosed in ...

Evaluation of 2 cable restraints with minimum loop stops to capture coyotes

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2011
We compared efficiency and selectivity of 2 cable restraints with a 10.8‐cm‐ (larger) or 8.9‐cm‐ (smaller) diameter minimum loop stop to live‐capture coyotes (Canis latrans) in Michigan, USA.
