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.

Even the rescuers thought that it was a real life version of the road runner cartoons,

That is true since the rescuers said that a real life crash with a coyote could have been fatal.

I liked the Warner Brothers cartoons a lot when I was younger.

@Deepizzaguy Oh yes definitely. If it is not to recover, then the best option for the animal is to stay in the zoo.

Most likely the coyote will spend time in rehabilitation.

The coyote was lucky since just having two broken legs in real life was better than having the coyote die.

I hope so as well since real life accidents are not anything like the cartoons.
