  1. Unit 4 Animals

  2. Coyote About the size of a small collie, this intelligent, social animal is found across most of southern and central Canada, and in western Canada as far north as the Yukon. The coyote feeds mainly on small mammals, such as mice and hares, carrion, and some vegetation. Packs will occasionally try their luck with deer, but single coyotes have little success in this area. Coyotes are preyed upon by wolves, cougars, and bears. Humans have employed a variety of devices against the coyote including bounties and strychnine, but their value as predators of agricultural pests is beginning to be recognized.

  3. Discussion The reasons why we should stop killing coyotes • They are not human’s enemies. • The methods to kill coyotes are extremely cruel. (How many methods?) • Coyotes are clever and emotional animals. (Find some examples.) • Coyotes have the potential to be man’s friends. (Any evidence?)
