Catherine Reid's beautifully grounded nature memoir casts a fresh eye on one of the most dramatic wildlife stories of our time. Throughout the twentieth century, coyotes expanded their population and territory so rapidly that they now live in each of the mainland forty-nine states, occupying a range larger than any other North American mammal. Their habitats increasingly encroach upon our own; in testament to their remarkable adaptability and awe-inspiring survival skills, coyotes have been spotted in nearly every habitable area available, including urban streets, Central Park, and suburban backyards. With great appreciation for this scrappy outsider and the fascinating ecological concerns its story brings to light, Reid suggests that we will all need to forge a new relationship with this uncannily intelligent species in our midst.
