Earlier this year, a male coyote captured the attention of biologists when it swam 2 miles to reach Alcatraz Island. This distance is notably double what researchers had anticipated.
Alcatraz, known for its swift and choppy waters, has a reputation for being a challenging environment, which adds to the intrigue of the coyote's journey.
The behavior exhibited by this coyote raises questions about wildlife adaptability and the potential for animals to navigate unexpected challenges.
