Coyotes Mate For Life

Once a Coyote finds a mate, it will travel and reproduce with that same mate for many years. In fact, they are often mates for life. The life span of a wild coyote is usually no longer than a decade. Once they find a mate, they will typically reproduce between January and March. The average littler ranges around six pups. Their litter sizes can also change due to available food sources. So, if there is an abundant amount of food for their pack, they can deliver up to 19 pups at a time. However, if the food source is limited, they will usually deliver a smaller amount ranging anywhere from one to six pups.

They Use Many Forms of Communication

Coyotes have a broad dialect and can make about 11 different sounds as a way of communicating. They can growl as well as huff in defense, or even bark or howl to communicate long-distance. Coyotes tend to howl if there is a threat nearby and they want to alarm their pack. They whine and yelp as a form of submission, as well as perform group howls as a form of reconnection. When they are traveling in packs, they let out a series of synchronized cries as a form of traveling communication.

They Can Run Very Fast

Coyotes are incredibly fast and can run just over 40 mph. In fact, because they are smaller and hunt smaller prey, they can run a lot faster than most wolves. This incredible speed makes for an important chase when catching prey or traveling in packs. They run at an average of 35 mph. They use their fast sprinting in pursuit of fast-moving prey or to get away from nearby threats.

They Are Also Called Prairie Wolves

Although coyotes are much smaller than your average wolf, they are often referred to as prairie wolves. On average, an adult female coyote can weigh anywhere from 15-40 lbs. An adult male coyote can weigh anywhere from 18-44 lbs. Although they are closer to wolves than they are domesticated dog breeds, they are still relatively small in comparison. The average North American wolf can weigh up to 180 lbs. Coyotes may be smaller, but they are still amazingly fast and strong for their size!
