Section A
Passage 1
All North American canids have a doglike appearance characterized by a graceful
body, long muzzle, erect ears, slender legs, and bushy tail. Most are social animals that
travel and hunt in groups or pairs. After years of persecution by humans, the
populations of most North American canids, especially wolves and foxes, have
decreased greatly. The coyote, however, has thrived alongside humans, increasing in
both numbers and range.
Its common name comes from coyotl, the term used by Mexico’s Nahuatl Indians,
and its scientific name, canis latrans, means “barking dog.” The coyote’s vocalizations
are varied, but the most distinctive are given at dusk, dawn, or during the night and
consists of a series of barks followed by a prolonged howl and ending with short, sharp
yaps. This call keeps the band alert to the locations of its members. One voice usually
prompts others to join in, resulting in the familiar chorus heard at night throughout the
west.
The best runner among the canids, the coyote is able to leap fourteen feet and
cruise normally at 25-30 miles per hour. It is a strong swimmer and does not hesitate to
enter water after prey. In feeding, the coyote is an opportunist, eating rabbits, mice,
ground squirrels, birds, snakes, insects, many kinds of fruit, and carrion—whatever is
available. To catch larger prey, such as deer or antelope, the coyote may team up with
one or two others, running in relays to tire prey or waiting in ambush while others
chase prey toward it. Often a badger serves as involuntary supplier of smaller prey:
while it digs for rodents at one end of their burrow, the coyote waits for any that may
emerge from an escape hole at the other end.
Predators of the coyote once included the grizzly and black bears, the mountain
lion, and the wolf, but their declining populations make them no longer a threat. Man is
the major enemy, especially since coyote pelts have become increasingly valuable, yet
the coyote population continues to grow, despite efforts at trapping, shooting, and
poisoning the animals.
