Projo.com: Can We Co-Exist With Coyotes?

The Projo's Environmental Writer Peter B. Lord's review of the Aquidneck Island coyote problem includes a captured photo of a coyote tracked with GPS technology.

Projo.com on Sunday reported that the latest coyote attack occurred about two weeks ago in Portsmouth with the death of a local farmer's newborn Angus calf.

Environmental Writer Peter B. Lord also takes a look back on the overall coyote management issue for Aquidneck Island and how the Narragansett Bay Coyote Study is helping to identify the "problem" coyotes.

A Projo.com photographer also captured the image of Clyde, one of the local coyotes that's become part of the wildlife study that utilizes GPS tracking technology.
