Coyotes illicit a range of emotions in people. They are native to Indiana and have an interesting history in the state, but their populations were very low for a long time, giving many the perception we didn’t have coyotes for many decades. Coyotes are adept at living in all types of habitats, including urban areas, and this has allowed them to thrive in Indiana. Join Indiana’s furbearer biologist for the DNR, Gerrian Albers, as she talks about all things coyote.
