Description
The purpose of this research was to determine the efcacy of scent lures in attracting Canis latrans, more commonly known as coyotes. To do this, a camera trapping method was used and paired with scent lures of coyote urine and a fsh emollient, as well as a control. The results were inconclusive as to which lure was more or less efective; however, the results do provide valuable information on the coyote population of the area, as well as other mammals
