Although it has been over a month since John Ruch's story about my site in the J.P. Gazette, I thought somebody or other might appreciate a direct link to the story. Here it is: http://jamaicaplaingazette.com/node/2738
Sorry for the delay.
Since the story's publication, a number of J.P. residents have reported sightings. Once I've figured out the exact locations (more or less), I'll add them to the interactive map on jamaicaplaincoyotes.com.
One a non-canine J.P. nature note, it seems there's at least one deer in the Arnold Arboretum.
I saw it -- a doe -- on my last run there, on Friday morning around 11. The doe stood on the side of the road for a couple of minutes as I jogged in place, staring. We were maybe 40 feet apart, and it stared back. I didn't want to leave, but it seemed I had to make the first move, or we might have been there all day. I wonder now what else is in the tall grass near the Arborway gate.

Hello. Love the site. Spotted a coyote on South St. traveling from JP to Roslindale at around 2 am on the morning of July 6th coming home from Costello's (don't worry, there was a designated driver!). It was scaling a crumbling part of the stone wall on the right as we approached the right turn onto Bussey St.
Just got an e-mail from the Woodbourne listserve that lat week a coyote was spotted (and killed a small dog) in Forest Hills cemetary right near the unoffical gate to the old St. Andrew's parking lot.
saw a coyote the other night/early morning.

the animal was male, most likely and about 65 pounds. very healthy. i am a hunter, so i stopped to take a look for while.
Hi,
I just saw what looked like one in our street, at the Southern end of the Pond. When I stopped my bicycle and took my bike light to go after it, it literally vanished. It looked like a tall, skinny dog with a bushy tail.
I saw a coyote crossing Morton St. between the Shattuck hospital and Shea circle on Sunday night (Jan. 4, 2009) at 10:30pm.
