Earlier last week, three coyotes were spotted at Columbia University. More on that story here.

Experts say that coyote sightings in cities are not uncommon and that it's going to increase in frequency as they fight one another for living space. Green spaces like parks and college campuses provide a food source for the dogs, like small rabbits.
