Coyote chasing a squirrel

I'm surprised that the squirrel didn't just go higher up in the first tree, rather than running over to a different tree.

This was 1 of 4 coyotes I saw Tuesday in Graceland Cemetery. Note the different ID tags and devices from the Cook County Urban Coyote Project. 1. No collar, 1 pink ear tag 2. Radio collar + 2 pink ear tags 3. Radio collar + 2 light yellow ear tags 4. No collar, no ear tags

he looks well fed and healthy.

No doubt it has caught some other squirrels.

I’m glad the coyote didn’t decide to catch a Loerzel. That camerawork was close!

I did not expect the squirrel — or the coyote — to come running so close to me!

Bro is terrible at coyoting.

When two cartoons converge. Somewhere in a parallel universe, moose & road runner are besting Boris & Natasha.

I have a similar video of my toddler and a squirrel 😂. I think the squirrels like to play like this, tbh.

Reminds me of Looney Tunes. Is that the cemetery on Clark STreet?

Graceland

Coyote is giving you a look as if you are the reason he didn't catch the squirrel.

is this graceland cemetery?

Yeah

Go squirrel!

My dog chases squirrels too but I think the situation is not as life or death for the squirrel in that scenario. Also, she never catches them, they always seem to know when to climb.

Rosehilll?

Graceland

lol. I took my dogs to the park once, once n letum run wild, dammed if they didn't catch a squirrel too far from a tree. We left in shame, well I did, they were all smiles in the car headed back home.

Rooting for the coyote

Those squirrels do like them some adrenaline rush

@chicagobars Makes you wonder who is toying with who🤔

The squirrel is punking him. Not sure who to root for.

They do the same exact thing to my dog.

Saw it tracking squirrels yesterday too.

Wish the squirrel would have dropped a nut on his head!!!

too slow, should morph into a greyhound

This short clip could definitely serve as a #Chicago metaphor, with strong Mayoral/Council energy clearly on display to those of us out in the nether regions who might still be playing along at home. 🐿️

Which cemetery 🪦?

Graceland

Geez, now you're a nature videographer too? Crazy.
