You know, ignorance is only bliss if it keeps its mouth shut.
We are firmly in the mating season here, not whelping season, so the chance of any pups in a den is highly unlikely.
I’d also bet you a haggard old Sterlingworth that Coyote is a male.
98 photos of coyotes passing that rock from 1/20 to 2/14. Really bummed I don’t have the time to run the traps this year.
The first picture I got of that coyote was a little over 2 years ago right about 1 mile from that rock.
I also doubt he is anymore hybrid than any other coyote in the area but that I won’t state as fact.
