However, they are found mostly in the Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge which was quite a ways to the southeast of our study site.<br /><br />The Zoo that we were working on does have Red Wolves on display...maybe it was an escapee :)Trailblazerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09949103831752176052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268542543738300058.post-9481055653791967452012-03-01T01:31:02.053-08:002012-03-01T01:31:02.053-08:00That first coyote pick in black and white looks li...That first coyote pick in black and white looks like the CA wolf pic a bit. Obviously a coyote but still cool.

Immediately after that is a picture of a Gray Fox, and is labeled as such.<br /><br />If you're referring to that last 'yote pic (i.e., the third pic): you can compare the size of the animal in that picture against the animal in the fourth picture, which is a gray fox (both were taken at the same camera set). Also, although you can't see the fox's tail above, they typically have proportionally longer tails relative to their body length than do Coyotes...and you'll notice the critter in that third picture has a fairly short tail.<br /><br />Hope that clears it up!<br /><br />Nice job on the bear den post recently!Trailblazerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09949103831752176052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268542543738300058.post-35933926616532611132012-02-28T05:24:40.860-08:002012-02-28T05:24:40.860-08:00Is that last picture of 'talking dogs' rea...Is that last picture of 'talking dogs' really a coyote?
