The Gotham Coyote Project is an effort to study the ecology of eastern coyote in NYC. Coyotes are recent arrivals to NYC, and our main goal is to document this range expansion.
Our camera trap network is the largest and oldest component of the project, and we deploy cameras in the Bronx, upper Manhattan, and Queens for 2 >8 week deployments each year. Typically we have a winter/spring deployment that runs from Jan/Feb to April or May and a summer deployment that runs from mid/late June to mid/late August.
The NY Metro Wildlife Network is studying wildlife in the greater NY Metropolitan Area. We use camera traps to investigate how several species are able to make a living along this vast urban-rural gradient.
