I used to think that coyotes were large purple animals that looked a bit like very fat horses. They had green polka-dots on them and razor sharp teeth. When I heard my mom talking about a pack of coyotes, I decided that they could shirnk and that they all lived together inside a back-pack. It was a few years before my dad managed to convince me that they looked like dogs.
