This one comes under the headline of RIPLEY'S BELIEVE IT OR NOT---A woman driving to Calgary(Canada) from her home in Airdrie going highway speeds, slams into a Coyote crossing the road,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,The woman assumes the Coyote is dead and keeps driving...................100km(62 miles) later as she gets out of the car in Calgary, what does she see stuck inside the grill in front of the car?..................The Coyote, embedded inside the metal grill but awake and seemingly uninjured.................And sure enough, after the Wildlife biologists and Emergency Crews freed him, the Coyote was pronounced "fit as a fiddle",,,,,,,Returned to one of the open spaces in the Provincial Parks outside the City.................."In many Native American origen stories, the Coyote is known for his crafty intelligence, stealth and voracious appetitite, a "comic trickster whose sometimes risk taking behaviour gets him into trouble while ultimately his cleverness gets him back out"...................I would say this episode of surviving a direct car hit reinforces all of these characteristics that Indians saw in our SONG DOG-THE COYOTE

Miracle coyote hit by car on Alberta highway, safely travels 30 km in car’s grill

Josh Duncan Sept 11, 2017

Coyotes may not be part of the feline family, but one of them certainly has nine lives.

Georgie Knox was travelling from Airdrie to Calgary for work recently when she hit that particular coyote with her car.

Airdrie is North of Calgary on the map below

“Last week, on my way to work in the early morning, a coyote darted in front of my car and I hit it,” Knox explained on a Facebook post about the incident. “I heard a crunch and believed I ran over and killed it.”

When she arrived in Calgary, however, a

 construction worker 

pointed out to Knox that she had a hitchhiker.

“Upon stopping at a traffic light by my work, 

a construction woman

 notified me that there was in fact a coyote 

still embedded in my 

car,” said Knox. “When I got out to look,

 this poor little guy was

 looking up and blinking at me.”

The poor animal was stuck in the grill of Knox’s

 vehicle and

 despite the crazy nature of the incident, didn’t 

appear to be 

too badly injured.

Knox called Alberta Fish and Wildlife
Enforcement, 

who sent an officer to check out and
deal with the

 coyote.

“Miraculously, he was freed and had
 minimal injuries

 despite having hitched a ride from
Airdrie to Calgary

 at highway speeds,” Knox’s
Facebook post said. 

“Their biologist checked him
over and gave him

 the good to go.”

The coyote was released in
 Kananaskis, which is

 just over 100 km away from
Airdrie and right on

 the edge of multiple provincial
 parks.
