I believe it. I’ve seen a wolf in sheeps clothing. His name is Brent Black.

I spoke to a forest ranger from the Pocomoke State forest several years about this. He had a Coyote that had been hit outside of Shad Landing state park. He told me Coyotes were extinct on the shore until recently. He told me they have migrated here from Cecil County. I know that are a danger to small animals and for farmers who have chickens.

There have not been coyotes in Wicomico until the last several years. They were brought in the shore by DNR to help fight the population growth of Nutria. Keep your pets inside , in a fence or on a leash. Your pets are easy meals for these animals

I think I read some place that our coytes are a cross between the eastern coytee and the eastern red wolf.

DNR did not bring them. Who started that rumor?

Baltimore is getting to dangerous for them.

The DNR did not bring them here. They have been spreading their range eastward for decades.

I think the person did!! Are you on his cycling team or is that just for his special friend on the water??

They've been here on the shore for quite some time now. They are not new. Ask any trapper. They've been hunting them for years. Just because they are seldom seen (they're nocturnal), doesn't mean they are not here.

Just like they didnt introduce Frag or nutria right?

BS, DNR did bring them here.

Heard it from one of their own.

And tell me how the snakeheads made it into a Worcester County Pond less than 4 years after the first ones were reported from that pond on the Western Shore.
