This is a larger species that has the body size closer to a wolf. They hunt in urban and forested areas and are really good at taking out cats. They are also large enough to get deer.
Could be. I was on my bike, and they ran as soon as they saw me. Slightly larger than a German Shepherd but with a different body shape and longer legs. There’s plenty of wild and domestic prey for them along the trail I ride, so not surprising they’d be hunting there. I’m usually out before sunrise and see a lot of wildlife that most people don’t get to see.
You likely don’t have any coyotes over there anymore. You have coywolves.

Another part of their success is how totally and completely they avoid human notice in most cases.
