Coyote calling for company
From Robert Whitcomb’s “Digital Diary,’’ in GoLocal24.com
‘In its Feb. 14 article, “Valentine’s Day Is Also for Coyotes,’’ The Boston Guardian warn us that February marks the start of coyote mating season. Yes, there are plenty of opportunistic coyotes in Boston, including downtown, and in Providence and Worcester. The beasts become more skittish and territorial in mating time, and more likely to attack other animals, including people, at this time of the year. As mankind takes over more and more of the world, many creatures will have to learn -- like, for example, coyotes and raccoons – how to live close to humans, or go extinct.
