From its depictions as the “trickster” in ancient fables to its portrayal as a threat to humans and their pets in modern news sources, coyotes are rarely shown in a favorable light. Now a new book, Coyotes Among Us: Secrets of the City’s Top Predator, offers new perspective based on research conducted by Dr. Stanley D. Gehrt and the Urban Coyote Research Project team. 

With stunning images of coyotes within their surprising urban habitats, Coyotes Among Us pulls from decades of experience to dispel coyote myths, highlight the benefits of living with coyotes, and embrace the top urban predator as a brilliant survivor against all odds.
