The Coyotes of Ramapo

No it isn't. And they can live there. In fact the positive assertion that they aren't there at all is pretty close to trying to prove a negative.

Specifically, it is a common claim in cryptozoology known as out-of-place animals (OOP).

Bigfoot "can live" in North America, but it doesn't. Oh, and it should be no surprise that rocky promotes the existence of Bigfoot.

This is cryptozoology... a pseudoscience.

That explains why bighorn sheep live in the mountains of Massachusetts.

That is just a stupid statement showing bad trolling. You seem to want the Northeast to be one big glorified dog park, but sadly it isn't. It has a moose population, an expanding black bear population with an expanding range, a common population of coy-canids (call them what you will) as well as the odd cougar that passes through, not to be confused with bobcats, also plentiful.

Hardly your desired dog park. Your imagined wolves may not be here, but their DNA is. Deal with it.
 
You will not find me arguing against coywolves and coydogs living in Massachusetts and New Jersey.

My argument is against red and grey wolves living in Massachusetts and New Jersey.

I have not promoted that either, participation in a bigfoot thread doesnt make one a proponent of it, one can not believe and still find it interesting.

Then you have no argument, because noone said they did. Moving right along, you are now actively lying. No wolves, in the Northeast, Coydogs and coy wolves are common, and cougars, while rare, do pass through to. As to what you said but me and bigfoot, bull puckey. There, you lie like a cheap rug.

In posts #12 and #16 you say that red wolves live in Massachusetts and New Jersey.

In post #46 you promote grey wolves living in New England.
 
I get a real kick out of the way people who (I guess live in cities?)have so little interaction with wildlife that they have to try and exaggerate the attributes of a rodent-eating, scavenging wild dog no bigger than a cocker spaniel in order to justify their incoherent fears.

It's got WOLF DNA OMG! Run for your lives! Save yourselves!

Jesus. I bet certain poster cower in fear when a crow flies over. THUNDERBIRD!
 
In post #16, rocky implies that he hikes often in Massachusetts and New Jersey and sees red wolves. He doesn't specify which state or maybe both. It doesn't matter though because the red wolf doesn't live in those places.

The writing style is poor so maybe he means something else.
 
Coyotes are maybe half again the size of a cocker spaniel, and while they're not much danger to adult humans, we've had domestic cats and dogs taken by coyotes in my neighborhood. We see them occasionally, but even city coyotes are still shy of people.

Is that an observation about people (or city people) in general, or has someone in this thread said something in an attempt to justify their incoherent fears?

As are coy wolves, and to all the agitators in the thread, spare me, I just find the hybridization interesting. That said, Parcher has done everything in his power to tank the thread, so maybe he's succeeded. His ego certainly isn't in danger anytime soon.
