I saw a bunch of coyotes while I was cutting hay this summer, and I'd not seen any out there previously (my dad said he'd occasionally see on in the daytime, but I saw three of them on the field at the same time at one point). There's a ranch a bit north of my folks' place that had one coyote hanging on the fence last summer, and they hung up three more right around Christmas. They were big fat ones, too--if they weren't coyote-colored, you'd swear that they were small-ish wolves.
