Fanofthefortyone: I have never seen a black Coyote but over the years I indeed have seen several black Wolves and three Black Foxes here in western Montana.
I'll keep looking.

Could be a melanistic phase coyote. Much like the "black panther" some people see or hear about.

I can't recall ever seeing a black one. I took a shot at a very large red one years ago, pretty sure it was a coydog. I was turkey hunting and couldn't get the shotgun laid down and the .44 out before he bolted.

Killed one on an old cattle lease we had down by Luling Texas.
