Species: Canis latrans
The eastern coyote is a hybrid between coyote and wolf. The hybridization likely first occurred in the Great Lakes region, as western coyotes moved east. In the early XX century, the aftermath of the extirpation of the gray wolf and eastern wolf, allowed coyotes to colonize the former wolf ranges, and mix with the remnant wolf populations. This hybrid is smaller than the eastern wolf and holds smaller territories, but is larger and holds more extensive home ranges than the typical western coyote.
