Well, I know that #8, #10 and #11 are Heavy Western in Alberta and Saskatchewan and I suppose that it'd be possible in South Western Manitoba since it is so close. I'm still wondering about the following:
- I Know that Heavy Westerns are caught in Montana but I'm wondering how far south they would be. The map has #10 going all the way to Texas.
- How far West and South would they be in #11?
- BC has both #8 and #11. Do they even have Heavy Westerns there?
Of interest to me......I trap in #8 and my yotes are dark = Northern Coyotes. AB Trappers in #10 seem to catch lighter coloured ones = Plains Coyotes.
8. Canis latrans incolatus (Northern Coyote)
10. Canis latrans latrans (Plains Coyote)
11. Canis latrans lestes (Mountain Coyote)
17. Canis latrans thamnos (Northeastern Coyote)
20. Canis latrans “var” (Eastern Coyote)
EDIT.......I'm getting the info wrt what states have Western Heavies from Trappers on a US Trapping forum.
