New Page In the Eastern Coyote / Coywolf Section at Withywindle Nature

I was reviewing the Eastern Coyote information that I’ve gathered and shared over the years, and realized recently that it was missing a concise history of canines in the northeastern US. I’ve covered most of it in several different blog articles, but I want it to be more accessible and all in one place.

So I’ve put together a new page: The History of Coyotes and Wolves in the Northeastern US. The history page, like the rest of the pages in the Eastern Coyote section, will get updated and added to as I gather more information.

Knowing the history of a species helps us understand its present niche in the habitats and ecosystems they inhabit. Combined with ecological knowledge and how to live safely around them, we get a fuller picture of the species and how they interact and manage to live around human habitations. To quote Baba Dioum:

For in the end we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.
