Description / Abstract
Canis latrans, or the coyote, is a resilient species whose populations are currently expanding into Central America potentially creating harmful repercussions for local wildlife. The increasing populations of the coyote may compete with other native species forcing them to relocate or adapt to new behaviors. This project sought to explore if there is a relationship with Leopardus pardalis, or the ocelot, a species native to the region.
