I need to qualify a couple of things:
The coyote I'm referring to are the eastern coyote, which is quite large compared to the western variety...
And, the so-called "brush wolf" has great variance in color: usually, the coloration is mottled, but there are "red", brown, grey, black, tan, pink and blue... Well, no pink and blue ones yet... but usually they are greatly varied in coloration and mostly mottled. You know them when you see them. It's fairly obvious they're neither Timber wolf nor coyote. Also, they are much more aggressive and tend to run in packs. The Timber wolf is much more shy and reclusive.
