Default coYote travel?

How far will a big male travel?
Does he travel in the same route every night or does it take him 2-3 days to make his circle?

Not real sure, but a couple of things probably dictate how far a coyote will travel, such as food availabilty, cover, and coyote density.Coyotes are territorial, but how big thier territory is depends on the three listed conditions above.

i think a coyotes range depends on where he lives.around me the coyote packs have ranges from as little as 8 miles to around 20 miles.generaly takes them 2 to 4 days to circle there range.this discription is for a large alfa male that has and keeps a pack of coyotes with him.a male loner coyotes range is endless,loners travel many many miles looking for food and companionship.he mostly will get run out where ever he goes.a lone male is not welcome in any packs territory.

Coyotes are like people, lazy by nature but motivated by need. If a coyote can find good cover or den location within a quarter mile of a good water source and a good food source, it's not likely it will travel very far outside two miles even to breed. On the other hand, if a coyote can't find food very easily, or a secure den location can't be found within miles of the food source, then it's likely that they will travel for many many miles every day, maybe 5 miles a day give or take 2-3.
