COYOTE

Coyotes are members of the dog family with brown coats, slender pointed muzzles, and long bushy tails. They give birth to multiple pups in a secure den site. Once the pups grow up, they become powerful and adept predators, able to stalk and pounce after chasing down prey at speeds of about 40 miles per hour.
