[5] Corgi Puppies For Sale At Amherst 5 Things You Most Likely Didn't Know About Corgi Puppies For Sale At Amherst

On the patio of her Newport, Rhode Island, estate, over iced tea with fresh-picked mint, Diana Prince recalls the night in 2004 when “the life just went out of our home. It was about 10 p.m. I had returned from a party, and it was my habit to walk Gus, our little Jack Russell, before turning in.

“Gus dashed ahead through the lilacs, and I heard the most awful dog fight. I was in heels, and by the time I put on my gardening shoes to investigate, it was silent. The last thing I heard was three little yips off in the distance.

“I know now that was probably the coyote calling its young. . . . It was early summer, the time they are teaching the pups to hunt.” Only a tuft of fur was ever found of Gus.

In hindsight, the Princes and all of Newport, located on Aquidneck Island in Narragansett Bay, were becoming the latest front in what Canadian biologist Gerry Parker, in his book Eastern Coyote: The Story of Its Success, calls an expansion “unparalleled by any other species of terrestrial mammal in recent history.” Massive forest clearing and thorough persecution of wolves and cougars left the Eastern United States without a top predator by the early 20th century. Coyotes, the native wild dog of the Western states, have been pushing east ever since, filling nature’s vacuum. Superbly adaptable and resourceful, coyotes continue to expand, inhabiting islands off Cape Cod, such as the Elizabeth Islands, and urban heartlands, like the perimeter of Boston’s TD Garden. In Massachusetts, there are an estimated several thousand coyotes.

What Parker deems “an outrageous success” ecologically gets more mixed reviews from a human standpoint. “I was planning to do free-range chickens, but I’m no longer sure I’d be the main beneficiary of that,” says Stuart MacDonald, a farmer on Narragansett Bay. Sheep and poultry farmers and owners of cats and small dogs began to notice losses in the 1990s as coyotes swam from Rhode Island’s mainland, crossed on the ice, or simply trotted across the bridges to Aquidneck and neighboring Conanicut Island (home to Jamestown). On the naval base in Newport, coyotes began howling in concert with taps some evenings. At Campbell Soup heiress Dorrance “Dodo” Hamilton’s 46-acre farm in Newport, the depredation was uniquely tragic. In connection with Tufts University’s veterinary school, Hamilton’s SVF Foundation preserves embryos, semen, and genetic material of rare and endangered livestock breeds. Coyotes took three of the world’s last 200 Santa Cruz sheep and two so-called Tennessee Fainting goats, a heavily muscled meat breed with a genetic defect that causes it to fall over at any fright, aware but temporarily paralyzed. “That was a coyote’s fondest dream,” recalls Sarah Bowley, manager of SVF’s livestock program. Coyotes shadowed people walking small dogs in the heart of Newport’s mansion district and appeared at area schoolyards. A wave of public concern led to the shooting by Newport police of a mother coyote in 2007. Her pups were euthanized.
