The coyote is a canine that lives in North America. People also call this animal the prairie wolf or the American jackal. It is smaller than the gray wolf, eastern wolf and red wolf.
This species is not at risk because many coyotes live across the continent. They adapt quickly to cities and environments that humans change. In 2013, scientists saw coyotes in eastern Panama for the first time.
The species has 19 different subspecies. An average male weights 18 to 44 pounds. Females weigh slightly less than the males. They have light grey, red, black, and white fur.
Coyotes live in family groups or loose packs. They mostly eat deer, rabbits, rodents, birds, and fish. Sometimes they eat fruit and vegetables too. They make a famous howl that changes pitch very fast.
