very grainy video that could be anything. I dont doubt that coyotes do occasionally slip into developed areas, but they do not stay, they do not camp out in small wooded areas within busy nieghborhoods and near the ruccus of an elementary school and if one did perchance wander even into the area of Hopespring, what exactly would the odds be that it did so during the exact time period when little Caylee lay out there exposed like so much trash?
as always, just moo
BBM. not necessarily.
With an estimated 2,000 coyotes, Chicago is the biggest urban area covered by such a consultant, who tracks critters lounging under taxis, ambling through the Lincoln Park Zoo and strolling the boardwalk of Navy Pier, its top tourist site.

Let Loose the Coyotes? Chicago Embraces Rat-Hunting Predators
http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/d...yotes-chicago-embraces-rat-hunting-predators/
I live in a county of over 1 million in the Chicago area and I have seen coyotes in residential neighborhoods during the middle of the afternoon. In area's with the regular 50X150' lots.
Since they are fairly shy animals they just are not seen as often in residential area's. IIRC their usual range is appx a 5 mile radius so if there is enough of a wooded or open grassy area not far they are likely to be in the area.
