Abstract
Since their range expansion into eastern North America in the mid-1900s, coyotes (Canis latrans) have become the region’s top predator. Although widespread across the region, coyote adaptation to eastern forests and use of the broader landscape are not well understood. This study surveys the distribution, abundance, and habitat usage of coyotes in and around the Adirondacks of northern New York and includes a map which predicts coyote density.
