5 Interesting Facts About Coyotes!

  • Coyotes are one of the most adaptable animals in North America - they've actually expanded their range massively in the last century and now live in every US state including Hawaii.
  • Their howls serve as a complex communication system - a single coyote uses different calls to signal its location, warn of danger, and maintain contact with its family group.
  • Coyotes are opportunistic omnivores and will eat almost anything - fruit, insects, rabbits, deer, and yes, the occasional rubbish bin if they're living near humans.
  • In Native American folklore, the coyote is one of the most important figures - typically portrayed as a clever trickster who outsmarts larger and stronger animals.
  • Coyotes can run at up to 65km/h and are strong swimmers - they're also known to form unlikely hunting partnerships with badgers, working together to flush out and catch prey.
