Winter Spatial Relationships of Wolves and Coyotes in Riding Mountain National Park, Manitoba
Abstract
In Riding Mountain National Park, wolves (Canis lupus) and coyotes (C. latrans) overlapped temporally and spatially. Movements of coyotes relative to wolves were not random. Coyotes used active wolf areas, and followed wolf tracks rather than avoiding them. The movements of wolves were not altered by the presence of coyotes.

Coyotes were abundant in the wolf-occupied area of Riding Mountain National Park, which is relatively small and surrounded by agricultural lands where coyotes were common and wolves generally absent.
“Coyotes were also abundant within the wolfoccupied area of the nearby Riding Mountain National Park, but the park is also relatively small in size (2976 km 2 ) and surrounded by agricultural lands where coyotes were common and wolves generally absent (Carbyn 1982;Paquet 1991).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
