I will admit that most coyotes do not look like this. Generally, the ones I have seen are clearly scrawny little coyotes, as some have mentioned here. But some can look a bit wolf like and some wolves can look a bit coyote like. And there are hybrids. We have the Brule River valley within 10 miles of our house and I have seen many tracks that seemed to be clearly wolf. Yes, there are a lot of wolves in N. WI. But they like a big river valley with uninterrupted forests as opposed to our farm fields and smaller woods with many farmers ready and willing to SSS. And I am yet to hear one howl in 20+ years - that is my point - it becomes more interesting to say you saw a wolf than a coyote - and my next door neighbors have seen many.
