Wile E. Coyote heads to College...

My husband and son took off to Newport RI yesterday while I freakin' worked... They spotted this coyote on the campus of Salve Regina College... even scarier.. is that a DAY CARE Center with the colorful turkeys in the windows?

**THIS JUST IN - OH - The power of the InterWeb**

I received the following email in response to this post:

Hello Laura,

Your blog with the photo of the coyote on the campus of Salve Regina came to my attention through Google. I hope that your son and husband enjoyed their visit to campus over the weekend.

I wanted to address your comment about the coyote and the appearance that it seemed to be standing near a day care center. The building that the coyote was photographed in front of is used by our education department, and that room is a simulation of an elementary school classroom – for future teachers to test ideas etc.

With regards to the coyote, we have notified local and state authorities, but they are unable to remove the animal at the present time. We have notified the campus community of the coyote’s presence and have instructed individuals to keep a safe distance as a precautionary measure.

I just wanted to clarify this for you in case you were concerned.

Thank you.

Awesome photo. One thing you can feel safe in knowing is Coyote's are very harmless unless they have rabies . They are more scared of people then we are of them.
