God's Dog: A Celebration of the North American Coyote
To the desert Indians of the Southwest, he is "God's dog"; to generations of ranchers, a pest. But to Hope Ryden, the North American coyote is a fascinating, endearing, and maligned wild creature.God's Dog is the result of two years of field research on the coyote, replete with over 50 photographs of the animals whose wild spaces she shared. This is a spirited, informative account of a unique wild species. The final chapter, specially augmented for this edition, brings the story of the embattled coyote up to date.
