Coyotes are highly adaptable and live in a variety of different niches. Their behavior can vary widely depending on where they live, but in general they live and hunt singly or in monogamous pairs in search of small mammals including shrews, voles, and rabbits. It is an omnivore and adapts its diet to the available food sources including fruits, grasses, and vegetables along with small mammals. (In Yellowstone National Park, before the reintroduction of the wolf, they began to fill the wolf's ecological niche, and hunted in packs to bring down large prey.) |
