• Spatial and Temporal Structure of a Mesocarnivore Guild in Midwestern North America (2015, background): “Coyotes negatively influence populations of several fox species (Sargeant et al. 1987, Cypher and Spencer 1998, Farias et al. 2005), and during experimental removals of coyotes, fox populations have increased (Henke and Bryant 1999, Kamler et al. 2003).”
• Feeding habits and trophic niche overlap between sympatric golden jackal (Canis aureus) and red fox (Vulpes vulpes) in the Pannonian ecoregion (Hungary) (2006, unknown): “In analogous carnivore communities in North America, the larger and more social coyote suppresses the smaller red fox and swift fox ( Vulpes velox (Say, 1823)) (Gosselink et al. 2003; Kamler et al. 2003; Lavin et al. 2003).”
• Dietary Niche Separation Between Sympatric Free-Ranging Domestic Dogs and Indian Foxes in Central India (2009, background): “Coyotes also are interference competitors, as well as one of the main causes of mortality for swift foxes and kit foxes (Cypher and Spencer 1998; Kamler et al. 2003; Kitchen et al. 1999; Nelson et al. 2007; Ralls and White 1995).”
• Long-term trends in carnivore abundance using distance sampling in Serengeti National Park, Tanzania (2011, background): “Such interactions result in particularly complex relationships between species within a community of carnivores, with important consequences to population dynamics and coexistence (e.g. Laurenson 1994; Creel & Creel 1996; Durant 1998, 2000a,b; Creel, Spong & Creel 2001; Kamler et al. 2003).”
• Widespread mesopredator effects after wolf extirpation (2013, background): “Swift fox (Vulpes velox) Foxes had low survival and predation by coyotes was the major cause of death Kamler et al. (2003)”
• Large carnivore impacts are context-dependent (2017, background): “In many North American trophic systems lacking larger carnivores, coyotes can interact competitively and suppress mesocarnivores (Henke and Bryant 1999; Kamler et al. 2003; Linnell and Strand 2000).”
