Smaller but very similar to their relative the gray wolf, coyotes are a type of canine that are endemic to North and Central America. What coyotes lack in size and strength they make up for in adaptability, as they can survive in almost all types of environments!
History: A prominent figure in American and Native American folklore, coyotes are often depicted as clever tricksters, similar to foxes, despite the many differences between the two. However, as coyotes have begun to densely inhabit and dwell in urban and suburban areas, the attitude towards them has become increasingly negative. In these areas, coyotes are often seen as pests.
Scientific Name: Canis latrans Characteristics: Painted with incredible attention to detail, this life-like coyote toy figurine captures the coyote's personality perfectly. Its posture reflects its timid nature, as coyotes rarely approach creatures larger than themselves. Size: This coyote toy figurine stands 3.75 inches long and 2.5 inches tall.
