The Misunderstood Coyote: Persecution, Resilience, and Renewal

The Misunderstood Coyote: Persecution, Resilience, and Renewal

A re-release of a favorite, coyotes are one of the most fascinating and misunderstood animals in North America. Known as the “song dogs” of the wild, these resilient canids have adapted to almost every environment on the continent from deserts and prairies to suburbs and big cities. In this episode, we dive deep into: The ecological importance of coyotes – how they keep rodent and rabbit populations in check, help balance ecosystems, and even shape the behavior of other wildlife. Why coyotes face persecution – from bounties and predator-control programs to misconceptions that paint them as pests or villains, we examine the history of human conflict with coyotes. What makes coyotes incredible – their intelligence, family bonds, adaptability, and iconic howls that define the soundscape of North America. Conservation lessons – why understanding and coexisting with coyotes is critical for healthier ecosystems and for changing the way we view predators. Coyotes remind us that nature is resilient, complex, and worth protecting. =========================================================== Another thank you to all our Patreon supporters.
