Coyotes may be building dens and having litters of pups near you, according to new research from the University of Georgia. But chances are you won't see them—even if they are denning right next door. In one of the first studies of its kind, researchers followed 48 urban coyotes fitted with GPS tracking collars and located 20 dens throughout Atlanta. They found that more than half of the dens were in natural structures like burrows and fallen tree trunks. The work is published in Ecology and Evolution.
