I saw coyote tracks walking the whole lengh of a roughly 6 inch diameter log today at Vaughn Hills. Even if they're not as agile as cats, they're agile enough for some log walking. <br /><br />But the Quabbin cat we followed the other day walked the length of a 3 inch diameter log. I don't know if a coyote could handle that.Janet Pesaturohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03827302925591789818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5534164785246075286.post-59222602886666705172010-01-01T14:42:11.102-05:002010-01-01T14:42:11.102-05:00"Poppycock"?

Dan and I noticed quite a few coyote rock & log steps on our recent Pisgah foray. Economy of movement dictates that one take a purchase where one can get a purchase. Loved the scat/squat photo, by the way.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01333043460544092307noreply@blogger.com
