- Canis latrans. [underlined]
Jasper, Alta. [Alberta] May 3, 1945.
Warden Burstrom tells me that
two coyotes seen by him on April
30 were the first seen in
3 months. He thinks they are
definitely less numerous than
they have been in recent years
Brosnett agrees
Breeding:- Alec Nelles tells of digging
out a den at Snaring. In mid
May it contained well grown cubs.
Frank Wells reports that an
old female shot April 20 contained
4 foetuses of 7 inches crown rump
length
Food:- Scats:- 1 horse Buffalo Prairie
2 elk.
In the summer of 1942 Frank Wells
found a coyote eating a freshly
killed goose that it had killed
on a small beaver pond on
Buffalo Prairie. Just the other day
one of the C.N.R. [Canadian National Railway] trainmen watched,
at Lucerne Lake, an old goose
swim back + forth in great agitation
honking all the while. Every now
+ then he noticed something twitch
in the grass. The goose after
several minutes approached closely
to the bank edge when with
one spring a coyote caught it
