New York City
HABITAT: Grey wolves live in a wide range of habitats including arctic tundra, steppe, open woodlands, forests, grasslands and arid landscapes. They require wilderness areas-from 130 to 500 square kilometres-that are big enough to support the large mammals they usually feed on. While my website and book is dedicated to discussing eastern coyote ecology and behavior, it is necessary to discuss how to avoid interactions from occurring. This link, and the following information below, attempts to do just that. General description of the eastern coyote or coywolf: Wildlife biologists Mark Weckel and Chris Nagy started the Gotham Coyote Project in 2006 in an attempt to better understand and educate the public about urban coyotes. In this video short, go in the field with Weckel and Nagy as they document and study the coywolf in its New York City habitat. A field trip with the Gotham Coyote Project, tracking the elusive coywolf in New York City. The first coywolf, or eastern coyote, appeared around 1919 after western coyotes and eastern wolves started mating. Its origins have been traced to Algonquin Park in Ontario, Canada. Your field guide to everything you ever wanted to know about the Coywolf, or Eastern Coyote — from a trip through the Coywolf’s modern day habitat to its very recent evolutionary history. Designer: Ricardo E. Galvez. Producer: Tom McNamara. Research: Robert Glowacky. The coywolf is currently most commonly called “eastern coyote”. However, recent research suggests that this animal is both genetically and morphologically intermediate to western coyotes and eastern wolves. The coywolf is a coyote-wolf hybrid found throughout eastern North America, from Canada south to Virginia. For decades, people incorrectly labeled coywolves as eastern coyotes.
