Coyote in Transit

Much of Western Oregon, particularly the Portland area, is pretty well built-up. Still, most of the region is close to wild areas where animal life thrives. I know, for example, that people recommend not allowing pet cats (even small dogs) to run loose in Corvallis, because the coyotes will take them. I've heard many people complaining about deer getting into their gardens in downtown neighborhoods. From time to time, photos are taken of deer wandering the city streets here. I know that cougars come into the fringes of town, though I've never heard of them coming into the highly developed portions.

But I've never heard of coyotes hopping mass transit before. No word on whether he paid for a pass, but apparently the critter was quite polite about being escorted off the train. From here.
