Coyote Run

So I went out for my 7-Mile run this morning I encountered what I thought was a coyote. It was standing in the road I was running on and it stopped me right in my tracks. At first I thought it was just a dog but it didn't bark at me and didn't move. I didn't make a move either and we just stood there looking at each other for a couple of minutes. I was afraid to provoke it by doing anything. I know that if you are in contact with one the best thing to do is to yell and try to scare it away. I just wanted to see what it would do. Finally it snarraled at me and ran down the road into a driveway. If I saw it again, I wanted to see if it had a coller on. I slowly walked down the road and picked up a stick for protection. When I got to the driveway, the animal was there just looking at me. It didn't have a coller or tags on. Never once did it bark at me. I just walked by and that was the end of it. I started to pick up the pace and ran home. That was my coyote run.
