Chuck and Stan, I trapped the first black-and-orange coyote about 25 years ago but there are more of that size and coloration now than the coyote trapped and snared here 30-35 years ago which were small, grayish, maybe 15-20 pounds, sometimes little bigger than a good-sized fox. Chuck, your picture is more like our the first coyotes which arrived in Nova Scotia in the 70s, elegantly framed compared to the current big beer-hall bouncers.
