call of the wild...
Dawn had not yet
broke when I first heard the call of the Coyote while hiking through the Sangre
de Cristo range. There is not a more beautiful reminder of the wild, than
listening to yips and howls from a pack of coyotes in the distance. Packs of
coyotes can be found roaming the land from lower Central America up to Alaska.
Spotting (or hearing) one of these canine creatures is not rare, but it is
always for me a magical experience that reminds me of my place in nature. Their
significance in Native American folklore as the “trickster” has always held a
special place in my heart. Characteristically curious, intelligent and a little
mischievous I cannot help but relate and hold a special place for coyotes in my
heart.
