What canines have you seen?

Post by AutumnWolf2008 » Mon Dec 01, 2008 5:46 pm

Hey, I just wanted to know how many people here on wolf quest have actually seen a coyote in the wild(not a pet or at the zoo).

I saw a coyote walk across my backyard just yesterday night, it was quite big and tanish brown. And just today i heard one howl. It was so cool!

Anyway sorry if there is another topic like this.

NOTE: Feel free to discuss the canines you have seen, whether they are wild or not. Domestic dogs do not count. All domestic dog-related discussion should be kept in the Domestic Dogs subforum.

Yes, i have. It was about 7 months ago though and it turned out that it was caught. No clue what happened to it though O.o Other than it ate someones chicken. But moving on . . . i saw it walk in my neighbors yard. It was pretty large and was a mix of colors between orange and brown for its fur color.
And another time i saw it was at night. I kept hearing my cat outside growling and when i turned on the outside light, the coyote was like nipping at my cat while she was trying to defend herself. It was scary to watch but she was fine.

Yep. Mostly dead on the side of the highway, but once in a while I'v seen them by cities or the road. Mostly I'v just seen foxes.

I see them all the time here in Colorado. They are all over in the Rocky Mountain National Park and in the City. I have also see a lot of Fox running around in the City. They are so pretty. I have had a coyote run right in front of my car during the day like I was not even there, he just looked at me and kept on going. They get so brave. I get scared for little kids.

I have seen many! They live right next to my grandmas house and they come in our yard. There are a bunch of packs. We have to shooe them away because they will attack and eat our dogs. :shock:
It is night,
It was supposed to be dark,
But these colours light up the sky,
There is orange,
Like my fur.

Blue,
Like the sea.

Yellow,
Reminds me of my pack.

I have seen wild coyotes on several occasions.

One of the times I almost ran one over with my bike. I had just turned the corner saw a coyote standing there. I quickly put on the breaks and watched it. It just ran a few feet away from me, then sat and watched me for a while, then got up and ran into the woods. It was pretty cool.
