A Duel of Glances

In an unlikely clearing in the woods, a coyote and a big cat are captured by a trail camera, locked in a gaze, sizing each other up. The suspense of the moment is tangible; will it lead to a chase or perhaps a battle of wits? If so, we hope they make it out unscathed.

These creatures, though not of the same species, share an intriguing similarity. Both coyotes and big cats rely heavily on their keen senses and speed when hunting. The similarity ends there, though, as the coyote is more versatile in its diet and habitat, and this unlikely encounter sparks the imagination and invites countless questions.
