Coyote America: A Natural and Supernatural History by Dan Flores
hopeful
informative
slow-paced
4.5
I’m as wise and ever hopeful as Wile E. Coyote after listening to this book. Despite humans’ best efforts to eradicate coyotes, they live on.
Coyote America is as much a history of the American environmental movement as it is a history of the tenacious canid in its title. The recounting of the methods of killing coyotes, wolves and other predators is not for the faint of heart, but it was eye-opening to learn of how coyotes have adapted to withstand the pervasive onslaught.
This is a great read whether by ear or by eye.
