[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2295665, member: 91783"] The only studies done on coyote using ear tags that I know of were done in Montana , Texas and California in the 60's and 70's . But that doesn't mean much as I haven't kept up with the research being done on coyote very well in the last few years . I do know that there are several studies from back east in Illinois , Ohio and a few of the eastern sea board states . They have been doing a lot of DNA testing back there and the results depend on which study you read so for me it will be that I read most of them and decide from there what the results are . The study done in Montana showed a coyote pup that had traveled to Kansas from Montana . One that was only a couple of miles from where it was tagged as a pup and one that lived for 10 or 12 years before it was killed . One of the studies done in Southern California had a female that was completely blind and raised a litter of pups on her own not in a pen . One of the studies done in Illinois says that there is around 3% of the coyote with dog genes but that nearly all have some wolf genes . One of the studies from Ohio said as much as 20% had Red wolf genes . I didn't think that was surprising to me as the DNR turned red wolves loose in the Carolinas . In almost all of the studies very few of the eastern coyote are full blood coyote a few have dog blood but most have wolf blood in them ranging from red wolf to northern timber wolf . A couple of the studies from Illinois and Ohio have tested from 20,000 to 30,000 coyote taken by trappers in those states so they have a pretty good base of coyote for their data and DNA research .
