Coyote in Marymoor Park, Redmond, Washington
Coyotes are an extremely adaptable species, closely related to grey wolves and domesticated dogs. Though the largest populations remain in the wilderness, the past decade or so has seen an increase in urban coyotes. This coyote was photographed in Marymoor Park, a large park in Redmond, near Seattle in Washington. Humans living in suburban and even densely populated urban areas are reporting more frequent sightings of coyotes. With few predators (besides humans) in populated areas, urban coyotes capitalise on the food sources available near human settlements.
