Deputies with the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office (CCSO) in Florida had to rescue a coyote that was hit by an auto and stuck on the front section of the bumper of the auto. The deputies of the CCSO named the coyote Wile E after the cartoon character who needed medical attention from employees of the Wildlife Center of Southwest Florida Rescue and Transport. The coyote only suffered two broken legs on his left side but the good news is that the coyote is expected to make a full recovery from his injuries. Thank goodness the coyote did not pass away.

It is good fortune that the coyote is still alive. I am sure that he will need to rest and recuperate for awhile before being release back to the wild.
