Did you know that New York City is home to coyotes?

In the last five years alone, coyotes have been spotted in all five boroughs. 

Join Anthony Caragiulo, principal scientist at Embark Veterinary and research scientist with the Gotham Coyote Project, to find out how scientists are tracking and monitoring some of these newest visitors to New York City, and how genetic markers found in dogs may lead to another member of the genus Canis becoming a human companion.
