NEW YORK -- A police helicopter and sharpshooters armed with tranquilizer guns were no match for a wily coyote that remained on the loose in Central Park Wednesday.

At one point, authorities tried to corner the animal in the southeast corner of the park, by Wolman Rink. The clever creature jumped into the water, ducked under a bridge, then scampered through the rink grounds and ran off.

The hunt has continued since Tuesday when Parks Commissioner Adrian Benepe, among others, spotted the animal in the southeast corner of the park, not far from the tony Upper East Side.

"It didn't look the least bit worried," he said. "He leaped over the fence and disappeared in the park."

While coyotes don't usually present a threat to people, Benepe warned that park visitors should keep their dogs leashed to protect the pets.

Officers did locate and shoot at the tawny animal as they hunted for hours Tuesday, but police said it escaped into a wooded area. Benepe said the creature would be taken to an upstate wildlife facility once it's caught.

The coyote, nicknamed Hal by Parks Department staffers, may have wandered into the city from Westchester County, perhaps swimming across a river, Benepe said. Another coyote found its way to Central Park in 1999 and is now kept in the Queens Zoo.

"It's very unusual to have them in Manhattan," he said. "They have to be particularly adventurous."

Duh, coyotes didn't survive (and expand their numbers/range despite of) indiscriminate shooting/poisoning/etc by being dumb.

So, rch99, you can rest assured that it can take care of itself (against muggers, etc).

Basically, they should just leave it be.

As I said, coyotes are plenty capable of taking care of themselves--and anyway, have a "sixth sense" (maybe even a seventh) of danger.

Maybe it a person that the park staffers really want to shoot?!?!

Yeah maybe a Hal porked the park dudes wife.

or maybe, the coyote did... :yes:

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).
