(6) The distances traveled by the drifters from the Park, 
tagged there in the spring or summer and recovered at all seasons, 
averaged 28 airline miles with a maximum of 115, 
(7) . Much of the coyote drift precedes and is not dependent 
upon the movements of big game. 
(8) Females showed a slightly greater tendency to migrate 
and males to remain nearer the tagging points. 
(9} Coyote movements from the Park, as well as those from 
other high regions, are bound to have a certain populating effect in 
surrounding areas.
