Wiley E. Coyote

So I'm going for a walk this morning at about 6:30 and I hear this incredibly freaky sound coming from the greenspace across from our neighborhood. It literally sounded like a pack of wolves howling. But...naw. So I go on with my walk and later on decide to walk some trails in the greenspace. I come to a place that is sort of a wide-open area used for water runoff. On the other side of the woods, about 300 yards away, I see four, from what I could tell, wolves walking in a straight line into the woods. What the!? Wolves in Abacoa?

So I called Busch Wildlife Sanctuary this morning to see if I was dreaming or should I be worried about going on nature walks with the kids. Turns out, there is a known pack of coyotes that lives in Abacoa. The woman at Busch Wildlife was jealous that I had actually heard them howl. The development has kind of squeezed down their territory, but they live pretty much undisturbed in the greenspace. Nice!
