    Dead on Road Coyote

    Saw a freshly hit yote on route 70 about a mile west of old red lion road. The girl a few cars down hit it by accident and was waiting for the state police(not sure why).......I was shocked by it size, it was a good size animal 40+ pounds. First time I ever saw one dead on the road in the pines.
