Safari 113089 Coyote

Smaller, but strikingly similar to the grey wolf, coyotes are a canine that densely inhabit North and Central America. What coyotes lack in size and strength they make up for in adaptability, as they can survive in almost all types of environments – even urban ones! Detailed to match one of the most common fur colorations of coyotes, this professionally sculpted figurine features the white belly, orange and black pelt, and bushy black-tipped tail that people think of when they imagine one of these elusive creatures. Its posture reflects its natural apprehension, as coyotes rarely engage creatures larger than themselves. This figurine stands 3.75 inches tall and 6.5 inches long, making it a bit smaller than a mass market paperback book on its side. We know you’ll want to display this beautifully hand painted model with its marigold orange and sandy black pelt, but make sure you give this shy canine a place to hide if it feels threatened! A prominent figure in American and Native American folklore, coyotes are often depicted as clever tricksters in the same vein of foxes, despite the many differences between the two. However, current attitudes towards the coyote have become more negative as they’ve begun to densely inhabit and dwell in urban and suburban areas.
