The Daily Coyote Blog
Posted on December 17, 2007
The Daily Coyote is a blog by writer/photographer Shreve Stockton who has adopted a coyote pup named Charlie that was orphaned when its parents were shot. Charlie lives with Shreve and her cat Eli.
Shreve writes, "Charlie is a wild-born coyote who was unexpectedly delivered to my doorstep this past April after both his parents were shot for killing sheep. Whatever reservations I had about raising a wild animal simply didn't matter - couldn't matter - when I realized his survival, at least in the short term, depended on me."
Shreve also says, "At the time I write this, Charlie is nearly six months old. I don't think of him as "my pet," even though he sleeps curled against me every night (every night except the nights around a full moon), and happily rides in my truck, and adores my cat. I don't wish to own him, just to live together in harmony. And that we do."
The story is very interesting and the photography is excellent so be sure to take a look. Update: Sadly, it appears that the blog has been removed.
