Coyotes are territorial and aggressive to interlopers, limiting how many coyotes live in an area. They eat small animals,such as mice, rats, squirrels, frogs, fish and carrion among others. They also will eat grass, fruits and berries. The coyote’s coats can range from black to strawberry blond but usually are a mixture of black, gray and tan. In this video by BDN contributor Allie Ladd, a coyote looks like it’s hunting for something, or checking the air for scent. If you stay until the end, you will see another one running through the woods in the foreground while it looks like the first one is lurking in the background.
