Earlier this month, I shared Southborough Open Land Foundation’s guest post educating the community about coyotes. In two weeks, SOLF is bringing in an expert on the subject for a special presentation.
“The Eastern Coyote/Coywolf – How Coyotes behave and live so successfully near people” will be take place at the Southborough Library on Thursday, April 27th at 7:00 pm.
According to SOLF’s website, researcher Jon Way will cover:
- The typical home range and territory size of the Eastern Coyote.
- Its movement and activity patterns.
- Its sociality, denning behavior, and hybridization.
- Many photos and some video clips.
Way has a B.S. (UMass Amherst), M.S. (UConn Storrs), and doctorate (Boston College) related to the study of eastern coyotes/coywolves.
He is also the author of several books, including two are specific to the topic: Suburban Howls and Coywolf: Eastern Coyote Genetics, Ecology, Management, and Politics.
Immediately prior to the presentation (at 6:45 pm) Way will be selling books.
