Absolutely not a fox. Coyote gets my vote, but I did have to watch it a few times and debate coyote vs. wolf.

She's wide and very seldom do you see a fat or over fed animal in the wild.

It's definitely totally wild. Hundreds of acres of woods back there. I practiced my google fu and now that I am an official coyote expert, it appears their pups are born in early spring - so she is right on schedule. This is also new england - so it's eastern coyote territory.

I do hear calls at night, though it sounds organized like a wolf pack. Could be both back there. I got a mother bear and cubs on a trail cam before but i'm hoping now that I have these cam's set up i will get something good. These are hikvision 2032 cams that I had lying around. There's no comparison between these and the dahua 5231. I will upgrade these at some point to those. Thanks all!!!
