In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Parkhurst, Associate Professor of Wildlife Science at Virginia Tech, to explore the elusive and often misunderstood world of coyotes. From their incredible adaptability and complex social behavior to their growing presence in both rural and urban landscapes, Dr. Parkhurst sheds light on how these canids have successfully spread across the Commonwealth, and what that means for farmers and ecosystems. We discuss their impact on agriculture, common misconceptions, and how humans can best coexist with one of nature’s most resourceful survivors. In the end, understanding the coyote may reveal less about the animal and more about ourselves.
