Recently, we found a road kill and believed it to be a red fox. We reported the sighting to a group at the local university who are surveying the red fox population in this area.

Interestingly enough, it turned out to be a coyote. Here are a few images that I found of the varied coloration in these amazing “Ghost Dogs”.
