When it comes to smarts, I'll bet on a coyote against the average human every day of the year.

Coy[]tl, the Nahuatl name meaning 'God's Dog' gave us Coyote, AKA Canis Latrans. The precolumbian range was roughly the interior Southwest extending into Mexico. The great trickster has rapidly expanded to present day Panama south, all of the contiquous US,Canada and Alaska south of the Arctic. The medium for this expansion was the eradication of their controlling species Canis Lupus, aka the Wolf, aided by their superior adaptability via variable behaviors. A coyote can easilly clock 43 MPH and jump 4 meters. They range in wieght from @ 15 lbs to 45lbs. The record individual was 75lbs and measured 5" less tail. Coyotes have lived up to 18 years in captivity and average 10 in the wild.

I wonder if they've ever been domesticated. Given their intelligence they'd probably give new meaning to the phrase "my dog's really smart."

A Coyote found wandering around downtown Chicago (the Loop) in April was trapped in a Quiznos restaurant. Nobody was injured.
