Yea they could there are plenty of deer I live in the middle of nowhere and a lot of people have been reporting seeing wolf's. Not coyotes wolf's. Their environment is similar enough for them to make it in Maine
I'm in Southern Ontario, and have had dealings with Coyotes (pleasant ones) and had a retired alpha sled dog from the Yukon, a wolfdog. He led the team for thirteen years, I had him in retirement. There's always the chance I might be wrong, but what I see in the video is a dog. And he might need a home and some comfort.
Its a Coywolf 100% walks like a Coyote but bigger then a Coyote. & smaller then a wolf. They've been spotted in Parts of Pennsylvania as well. unless its mixed with a domestic dog but thats highly unlikely. Possible but highly unlikely.
To me it doesn't look like a wolf I'm thinking coy-dog based on its build but I'm no expert. I did see what I'm calling wolves in Maine one early Saturday morning 25+ years ago somewhere between Millinocket and Houlton. There were 2 - one all black the other a grey/white mix. They were easily twice the size of a coyote with muscular chests and long, lean hind quarters. They took up most of a travel lane on I 95 - got my attention for sure.
yes. 2 years ago i was driving at dusk and there was a huge one on the side of the road. i have a focus and its back was as high as the door. beautiful animal. just looking for rodents.
That is absolutely part coyote. Coyotes do occasionally hybridize with dogs and wolves. This is a domestic dog crossed with a coyote--called a coydog. It retains all the behavioral characteristics of its coyote parent and cannot be tamed.
I'm guessing the Maine wildlife biologist was not updated (well at least during the time of this video) that DNA studies proved east coyotes are a hybrid mix of Coyote, Wolf and Dog?
That's definitely nit just a coyote normal a dog. It looks like a mixture of both. The tail of a coyote and the body of a large dog as well as its coat. Looks like a blend
I live out west and that doesn’t look like any coyote I’ve ever seen out here. Definitely has some wolf ancestry,it just doesn’t look like a typical coyote to me
No. *Canine expert here* It has too much extra feathering in its fur near the ears and tail. Also, the facial markings are much more representative of a domestic dog like an Alsatian, husky, or malamute. It probably IS a coydog or mixed with coyote to some capacity, but based off coyote standards, it looks nothing like a pure or even majority one. Average coyote standards are 25-45lbs. That guy looks like he's at least a good 60-70lbs if not more. He'd have to be mixed with something.
It's a dog mix, people are to use to floppy eared retrievers and toy breeds. They see a more original wolf like looking dog and loss their collective minds
There were some huskies that got loose around me and were trying to get someone’s chickens. Someone caught them on their ring and everyone was swearing they were wolves or coyotes. I knew right away they were huskies, which come in many different colors. Some look very wolf like.
You need to come to Renovo Pa. They are seen in packs within five miles of town and North Bend Pa. Two visit our back yard almost every evening. The ones that are here are Coydogs.
Do you notice how he was very careful not to use the words impossible. Use the words unlikely uncommon etc. I don't know what I saw while I was mountain biking but what I do know is I spend a great deal of time in the woods I've never seen anything similar I've seen some huge huge tracks and I know what a coyote looks like. What I saw was not a coyote unless it was not a typical color and potentially a world record setting size coyote
0:55 Coywolf or coydog. It's definitely not a wolf. But I don't think that's 100 percent - or even mostly - coyote, either. It doesn't look heavily built enough to be a wolf. Head's too small, too.
I know where it is because I’ve seen it before on RUclips and like is she in professionals it’s actually a husky mix with a coyote and German shepherd and wolf
Imagine breeding a female coyote and male German shepherd lol those pups gonna have the size of a German Shepard with the innate characteristics of a coyote. A few of those in the qild they definitely taking out deer
The large bushy tail could be either coyote or wolf, but it most likely isn't a wolf at all. The front legs of a wolf go straight up to their neck. They have almost no front chest area vs. a dog which has a large front chest and the legs go in beneath the front chest. Coyotes tend to be more brown while Western wolves tend to be grey, white or black.
Funny, he said it's very unlikely to be a coydog. News flash breeding is breeding in the k9 world and it happens more than the states say it does. The state of Michigan said there are no wolves in the lower peninsula of Michigan, yet in January a coyote hunter killed what he thought was a huge coyote and after testing it, it came back it was a 80lb gray wolf. Coyotes all have DNA of wolves and other k9 bloodlines. At least in the east, witch is why the eastern Coyotes can and often do reach weights of 50lbs but most big Coyotes are below 50lbs but above 40.
We have mixed breed “coy-wolves” in Canada, coyote/grey wolf hybrids. Bigger, more aggressive, and dangerous! The included photo looks much like a coy-wolf with a touch of domestic dog. 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
When she said “neighborhood chickens” I thought of the old Merry Melodie’s whistling wolf taking off with scantily clad loose moral having women over his shoulder
Definitely not a coyote, It has dog-like more so features. See the large frame and healthy it looks just like a dog. They do have wild dogs that live on their own independently and do search for food. I'm sure if anyone owned an animal like this they would look at it well and see it's quite a dog but just because it's running free doesn't mean it has to be a coyote because he is hungry and needs to eat. It could also apply to loose free hungry dogs that resemble a coyote. Coyotes are slender and have skinny legs and a shorter tail.
I saw some thing a couple years back the size of a German Shepherd in the woods in Orland. The coat was mostly dark in color with some amber colored fur on the underbelly and towards the rear granted I was quite a ways away but the eyes appeared to be from the quick glimpse I got quite Amber in color as well. Way too big to be a coyote. Way too big
It's too fat to be a coyote or wolf. That's somebody's dog that they let roam and it probably gets fed at home as well as supplementing its diet by foraging. It needs to be caught in a humane way and checked out.
what many people.dont know is that Dogs share a lot of the DNA that makes up Coyotes. So if dogs have COYOTE DNA then it wpuldt not be surprising that a Coyote and dog would "hang around" and or breed with a coyote. I am surpriaed that the gentleman from the DNR nade that statement. Regarding it rare or more rhan likley not see a cotyote breed with a dog. If you take a look ar the incident where the lost gog called."Ghost" he was left in the nussdle of no where in the Arizona dessert and was then adopted by a group of coyotes. This dog lived and hunted ffos worh this pac until recently qhen it was captured by the DNR or wildelife reserve deparment and was reunites by its owners.
If you come across one of these animals show it your size and grab a piece of paper and work out the square root of nineteen and show it to the canine so he'll know you are big ... and ... SMART
I hate that the guy says it's un licky no it not they can easily breed with stray dogs and have that hybrid s for the pitchers I'd say it's a coyo wolf as it big and the face I more wolf like body is coyote like but the wildlife guy is doing his job by saying it not so that its not scarung the public like a lot of places do to people
Look at the canine gait as it walks that’s got a lot of coyote in it stop lying fish and game I work for the department of conservation, your setting that animal and people up to get hurt or worse.
It's got such a dog face coloring but coyote body structure and future type tail. I couldn't do that job I'd waste so much time and taxpayer money by trapping, DNA testing and releasing outside of towns. I love them but further from scavenger diets and closer to rodent, bird, reptile and roadkill diets.
probably a wolf hybrid that someone turned loose because they couldn't live with it. they can't survive on their own without taking chickens
Yea they could there are plenty of deer I live in the middle of nowhere and a lot of people have been reporting seeing wolf's. Not coyotes wolf's. Their environment is similar enough for them to make it in Maine
Most likely option.
Most likely a Coywolf and yes they do exist and have been found in NewYork.
I'm in Southern Ontario, and have had dealings with Coyotes (pleasant ones) and had a retired alpha sled dog from the Yukon, a wolfdog. He led the team for thirteen years, I had him in retirement.
There's always the chance I might be wrong, but what I see in the video is a dog. And he might need a home and some comfort.

They’re in Canada too. They’re quite aggressive canine crossbreeds. 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
ive seen them in toronto.. they actually get sorta big.. i walked by 2 together late at night and i was thinking they could probably take me out
That's a coydog. It's not a Coywolf cause it lacks thr long legs and wolf like features like large head. It's got a dog body.
All I know, is that is not a coyote.
It’s three house cats in a Halloween costume
Looks like it has wolf, coyote and some malamute in it- dogs breed with wolves-my friend had one- it was a wonderful pet
To me it doesn't look like a wolf I'm thinking coy-dog based on its build but I'm no expert. I did see what I'm calling wolves in Maine one early Saturday morning 25+ years ago somewhere between Millinocket and Houlton. There were 2 - one all black the other a grey/white mix.

yes. 2 years ago i was driving at dusk and there was a huge one on the side of the road. i have a focus and its back was as high as the door. beautiful animal. just looking for rodents.
😕Its to bulky/thick to be normal coyote probably hybrid coydog coywolf or maybe both
I think so too.
Whatever it is needs to be down ed
@@mariogonzalezz6133 why???
That is absolutely part coyote. Coyotes do occasionally hybridize with dogs and wolves. This is a domestic dog crossed with a coyote--called a coydog. It retains all the behavioral characteristics of its coyote parent and cannot be tamed.
Lmao, no. I have a 75% coyote mix and he's dumb as a rock, but listens when told. (Except barking) Mine will sit, jump, and lay on command.
If from pup yes it can be tame.
I'm guessing the Maine wildlife biologist was not updated (well at least during the time of this video) that DNA studies proved east coyotes are a hybrid mix of Coyote, Wolf and Dog?
That's definitely nit just a coyote normal a dog. It looks like a mixture of both. The tail of a coyote and the body of a large dog as well as its coat. Looks like a blend
It probably has dog mix in it because it's not scared of humans
Coyotes are never afraid of humans, unlike wolves who are sensibly shy.🤠
It’s a good boi regardless
That is not a coyote. It looks like a shepsky/wolf dog.
It’s a coyowolf
It should be captured and given a home. Not killed!!!!
Its janet !!
🤣🤣🤣👍
Wildlife Guy needs more training
right....an embarassment to his job
It’s just a western coyote with a dark colored coat, it’s rare but a coyote can have a dark coat like gray or black.
I live out west and that doesn’t look like any coyote I’ve ever seen out here. Definitely has some wolf ancestry,it just doesn’t look like a typical coyote to me

It's Rin Tin Tins' great,great,great,great,great,great,great granddaddy 💖 and he's smiling! Lol
That's definitely a coywolf. We have them everywhere in Toronto. They are about the size of a small German Shepard, but don't bother humans at all
Technical issue: the closed captioning hangs at about 25 seconds.
Is it an abandoned pet??? Maybe it should be captured and tamed?
It's a dog mix, people are to use to floppy eared retrievers and toy breeds. They see a more original wolf like looking dog and loss their collective minds

I WANT ONE

This guy is likely is the product of a coyote tangling with someone’s German shepherd….it’s fairly common
I think coy wolf
A coydog…so it’s a smart ass canine? Alright…I gotcha
Big dude isn't he
I know where it is because I’ve seen it before on RUclips and like is she in professionals it’s actually a husky mix with a coyote and German shepherd and wolf
Hey, I went to college with Scott Lindsey, LOL.
Looks like a hybrid 🤷♂️
Imagine breeding a female coyote and male German shepherd lol those pups gonna have the size of a German Shepard with the innate characteristics of a coyote. A few of those in the qild they definitely taking out deer
It's a wild dog .
I saw one in this area in Frederick County.
Coyot why they butcher the coyotes name
That looks like a dog to me. He moves like one, has the mannerisms of one. Whether he's feral or just abandoned is another question.
The large bushy tail could be either coyote or wolf, but it most likely isn't a wolf at all. The front legs of a wolf go straight up to their neck. They have almost no front chest area vs. a dog which has a large front chest and the legs go in beneath the front chest.

It's dog cayote mix
How is that guy a wildlife anything? Wow he is woefully inadequate.

Coywolf
It's Paul Gilbert!
When she said “neighborhood chickens” I thought of the old Merry Melodie’s whistling wolf taking off with scantily clad loose moral having women over his shoulder
Never turn your back to a Coyote.
I'm more afraid of pigs than wolves
Pigs? My daughter had a pet house pig!
@@aimee-lynndonovan6077 pigs will eat you if given the chance
Its a dog! Look at boody length head structure. Very common dog for killing prey in same place repeatedly.
It’s a coywolf they’ve been in the area since the 1850’s
It’s a coy wolf we have them in nj too . I run at night sometimes late and I’ve seen coywolves not often but they’re around
Definitely not a coyote, It has dog-like more so features. See the large frame and healthy it looks just like a dog.

coyotes or hybrids want to survive,jus like you or me.
Face of it has somewhat of a wildcat look. Jmo.
I agree it’s not a pure coyote, way too big and I think it’s also pregnant hence the full abdomen.
Did they ever catch one
I saw some thing a couple years back the size of a German Shepherd in the woods in Orland. The coat was mostly dark in color with some amber colored fur on the underbelly and towards the rear granted I was quite a ways away but the eyes appeared to be from the quick glimpse I got quite Amber in color as well. Way too big to be a coyote. Way too big
It's probably a coywolf because coywolves might be black or white or brown or Grey
It's a wolfbearpigsnakeman in disguise as a wolfbearpigsnakeman!!!:) DUHHH. Everybody knows that
In Arizona we got coyote pitbull hybrids theyre the scariest looking things u ever seen
That’s a coy dog. It might have Wolf, but definitely Coyote and Pitbull.
Lol If that's part Pitbull I'm a monkey's cousin.
You can't fool us, that's Pelosi before she went to her stylist.
its janet
Nowhere near ugly enough.
It's too fat to be a coyote or wolf. That's somebody's dog that they let roam and it probably gets fed at home as well as supplementing its diet by foraging. It needs to be caught in a humane way and checked out.
That's a coy dog half dog half coyote
It's wolfman Jack!!!!!!

If you come across one of these animals show it your size and grab a piece of paper and work out the square root of nineteen and show it to the canine so he'll know you are big ... and ... SMART
Maybe the animals are terrified due to these creatures destroying thier habitats with trash,roads,buildings and tons of syringes
I have seen on RUclips that two coywolves killed a small dog
Ohh I’ll show my size alright…sad thing is I’m mostly girth
I hate that the guy says it's un licky no it not they can easily breed with stray dogs and have that hybrid s for the pitchers I'd say it's a coyo wolf as it big and the face I more wolf like body is coyote like but the wildlife guy is doing his job by saying it not so that its not scarung the public like a lot of places do to people
Has Stephen King weighed in?
Is a hybrid coywofdog
Coyote plus wolf
You come to West Virginia, and I will show you wild dogs that have mixed with coyotes he’s wrong
Just pet it and see.
That is an old coydog or an old coyote 100%. You can see it in his face, clear as day.
He's a mix
That's most definitely not a coyote😂
They take care of the land
Jesus loves you God bless you ♥️ Jesus died on the cross for our sins and rose again on the third day ♥️
Coydog. Solved
Coydog Coywolf
Show your size? I'll have to remember to wear pants and shorts with zippers from now on.
Set a Trap. You will find what it is.
Coydog
I heard red wolves are making a comeback, that could be it

That newscaster is money
You can tell by the face it’s some sort of Coyote, those ugly mugs aren’t the same as our adorable baby’s at home. You can tell!
That's ol yellow great great grandad.
