Urban Coyotes Live Off Trash, Fruit, And Cats

Recent research published in PLOS One shows the startling degree to which urban coyotes, as opposed to their suburban brethren, have turned to human-related sources of food. The new research, a project of the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area (SMMNRA), shows that 65 per cent of an urban coyote’s diet comes from trash, fruiting ornamental plants, and domesticated animals, namely cats. The new paper was co-authored by Justin Brown of the SMMNRA, and researchers from California State University Northridge (CSUN). -- Gizmodo Australia

I was supposed to travel to Anaheim to attend the 35th CSUN Assistive Technology Conference, and then return to North Carolina to keynote NC Tech’s Diversity + Inclusion in Tech Summit. However, I was not able to attend either event because of precaution against the coronavirus. -- WRAL TechWire
