"Coyotes' Impact on Intertidal Habitats Revealed by Motion-Sensing Cameras Along California Shoreline"

Motion-sensing cameras set up along protected shorelines in southern California have revealed that coyotes are consistent consumers of marine fauna in intertidal habitats, impacting other species that visit the same shoreline. The cameras captured images of numerous coyotes catching and eating seafood, highlighting their significant role in these ecosystems. The researchers also observed other wildlife, such as feral pigs, deer, bobcats, mountain lions, and black bears, emphasizing the need for further research to understand the ecological impact of these creatures on coastal ecosystems.
