Northeastern Coyote and North American Mink

[KP]

I saw a really big Northeastern Coyote at Marie Curtis Park East today a little just after 2:00pm sitting on the middle of the trail.  I then saw the Northeastern Coyote eating the fallen crabapples.  I also saw a North American Mink along the Etobicoke Creek right below the waterfall.

Didn't they have collared coyotes in mc park a few years back? And there was that large "blonde" male?

Seems like it was a quiet year for GTA coyotes this year....usually meghan posts amazing pix of GTA coyotes during the summer.

There is one at Chalk farm park Jane and 401, but it usually shows up at 7 to 7:30 in the morning, so I haven't seen it myself yet.

Hi Axeman.  There is an entire pack of Northeastern Coyotes that do live in the Marie Curtis Park and surrounding areas.  Yes, I did hear these Northeastern Coyotes had collars put on them as well to track their movements.  The blonde Northeastern Coyote you are talking about I believe is the one really big Coydog or Coywolf in the pack.

I saw the same Northeastern Coyote today in the same area around the same time.  The Northeastern Coyote was eating a black-phase Eastern Grey Squirrel.

You're a sweet heart for saying that. I didn't have much luck this summer. Lots of rain in the Spring meant loads of thick growth in forests and woodlots and it made it hard to spot them. I am starting to see them now that the leaves are down, making them easier to spot.

I saw a North American Mink along the Etobicoke Creek below the waterfall again and the same Northeastern Coyote at Marie Curtis Park East trying to hunt the black-phase Eastern Grey Squirrels again.
