John Charles Van Dyke Quote
When he [the coyote] starts to move, it is with some deliberation. He prefers a dog-trot and often several shots from your rifle will not stir him into a run. He slips along easily and gracefully - a lean, hungrylooking wretch with all the insolence of a hoodlum and all the shrewdness of a thief.
The Desert, Chapter IX (p. 159), Charles Scribner's Sons. 1930
