Surrounded by water on three sides, San Francisco

was the only California county without a coyote

population—until 2001. Coyotes can now be found

in almost every corner of the city today.


In a virtual case study of the coyote’s arrival in

urban America, this compelling one-hour film

unfolds first in San Francisco, then pursues the

coyote story across the national canvas—to New

York City's Central Park; to Chicago, where more

than 2,000 coyotes live today; and to rural

California ranch lands, where sheep ranchers find

some early success in using innovative non-lethal

predator control methods to protect their livestock.


We learn how coyotes impact urban and suburban

ecosystems, and how we can coexist with them

safely. And throughout, this lyrical natural history

film features beautiful, original, and entertaining

footage of coyotes and other urban wild creatures

—quail, foxes, raccoons, herons, opossums, and

parrots—that survive and thrive in our challenging

urban habits.
