Why the coyote became North America's most resilient predator
In short: While apex predators like wolves and grizzlies faced near-extinction, the coyote thrived by mastering the art of adaptation. This documentary explores how a creature of folklore became a modern master of survival.
The coyote is defined by its ability to inhabit diverse environments, ranging from arid deserts and dense forests to bustling urban centers. This versatility has allowed it to carve out a niche in nearly every corner of the continent.
The film explores the coyote's dual identity: a cunning trickster in folklore and a relentless survivor in the modern world. By defying the odds that pushed other large predators to the brink, the coyote has established itself as a dominant, adaptable force in the wild.
