Since coyotes can eat almost anything, we must sample many different prey items to assess coyote diets better. So far, we have collected samples from 43 potential prey species and several varieties of natural fruits that coyotes might eat.
10 paź 2018 · By assessing coyote prey use over broad geographic regions and using packs as our sampling units, we sought to better understand how size and habitat composition of home ranges influenced coyote predation on local prey species, such as white-tailed deer.
In some cases, coyotes may prey on livestock, particularly sheep and chickens. Deterrence methods such as securing livestock at night and during lambing, kidding, or calving, use of electric fencing, and livestock guardian animals can help to prevent livestock depredation by coyotes.
We collected data from coyotes all over Ohio, mainly from roadkill and from legally harvested animals. These samples are used to assess coyote diet, population dynamics, and impacts on local livestock.
30 gru 2019 · We investigated the spatial ecology of 27 coyotes fitted with Global Positioning System (GPS) telemetry collars radio-collared in the Cuyahoga Valley, Ohio. Our objectives were to quantify...
The Ohio Coyote Research Project. This coyote is wearing a GPS collar so that we can track its movement and learn more about coyote behavior in Ohio. Got Coyotes? Our project is investigating coyote movement to better understand their behavior and potential impacts on livestock production in Ohio.
Bears, wolves, mountain lions, and even other coyotes are known to prey on Ohio’s coyote population. However, one of the most significant predators of coyotes in Ohio is humans. Hunting and trapping activities by humans remain a leading factor in decreasing the coyote population.
