Coyote
Coyotes could be heard and seen at Bosque del Apache, but our experience was that they were always at some distance. One morning I decided to walk a bit along the road inside the park and turned to see a coyote walking right toward me. I just had time to kneel and slowly raise my lens as he walked within 15 from me. Another ran by in the underbrush but this guy, while keeping a keen eye on me, was acclimated enough to humans to chance a close encounter. (Canis latrans)
