Why?
Well... researchers say they're adaptable animals. And apparently, not as afraid of humans as they used to be. Footage shows coyotes astutely waiting on passing cars so they can safely cross the street, using sidewalks, and even raising a litter of pups in the top of a parking deck!
It's crazy!
I think the true reason for the takeover: Da Bears kinda bite, so a new animal's in town. If we suit 'em up, can the coyotes win more than five games?
Ouch. I know. A Browns' fan has no room to talk...
Or... since Oprah fled the city a while back, maybe the fear of becoming dinner has passed? Some poor coyote won't end up on the grill or wrapped in a tortilla. I'm not being harsh. Just sayin' I wouldn't want to be around a hungry Oprah.
