“Coyotes may be America’s most fascinating wild animal, and many of us starstruck by them have been eagerly awaiting this book. Stan Gehrt is the master researcher of the urban coyote phenomenon, and with Coyotes Among Us he has given city dwellers delighted (or alarmed) by coyotes a manual for understanding them. Enlivened by beautiful photos and frequent sidebars on individual animals, Coyotes Among Us is a treasure of ‘coexistence’ that will enrich every suburban reader who sees a coyote and wonders at the sight.” —Dan Flores, New York Times bestselling author of Coyote America and Wild New World
