Coyote

Fairly large one, a bit skinny but healthy looking...

Guess what, I have a family of them in my neighbourhood. I ran into the two adults once one after another in the same block. And I found out they were not dogs because when I approached them, they sped up a bit and kept a distance from me. Dogs usually do the opposite

Nice catch!

I've seen them twice in and around our neighborhood. Shame there is a no-limit-no-season-shoot-to-kill order in my parts

Thanks guys, yeah coyotes are common all over now. A very intelligent animal and quick to adapt to change.

That first one is a very nice environmental shot, my favorite type.
