Wikipedia article

This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

A medium-sized dog-like creature. It is sly, and groups can be heard howling in the night.

Coyotes are small canines found in packs of two to ten in most biomes, except tropical and freezing ones. A coyote is quite a bit smaller and far less aggressive than the wolf, lacking the [LARGE_PREDATOR] token. They will flee contact with your dwarves.

They cannot be trained except by adding a [TRAINABLE] tag, and even then, they're not particularly useful; a coyote is simply too small to do significant damage to animals, or to help defend your fortress from much.

In real life, coyotes sometimes attack people; two people have been killed by coyote attacks.

Don't believe everything you read, and if you miss some of the references, don't worry. It was inevitable.


Coyotes are well known for eating only very fast birds, and they will frequently try and lay slightly overblown traps to catch them, only for the trap to fail spectacularly and nail the coyote instead, not unlike what happens with some dwarven settlements. As a result, some dwarves tend to see the coyote as kin, a brotherhood of bad luck, if you will.
