"Scamp E. Coyote couldn’t believe his luck the first time a human threw him a tennis ball. “I looked around thinking it might have been meant for some basic canine, like a Max or Daisy, but no, it was meant for me!” explained Scamp E. “I rushed over and as I brought it back to its owner she started yelling ‘bad coyote’ so there were definitely some mixed messages in the game.” The experience left him shaken as that’s the kind of behaviour he’d expect from someone in Westmount, but not in Quesnell Heights."

Unusual looking hybrid for sure.

I don't know about owning though. I caught a baby coyote when I was a kid, and tried for several months to make a pet out of him, and he never got tame at all. Never bit me but he didn't like me, and always tried to run off. I turned him loose in the woods when he got big enough, and I hope he was able to make it.

May be it had traumatic memories of being caught and not being able to get back to their family...if born in captivity would be completely tame
