Talk:Pleistocene coyote

Canis ochropus orcutti
Can anyone explain this fellow? "Merriam, J. C. 1912. The fauna of Rancho La Brea: Part 2: Canidae. [TYPE: Canis milleri sp. nov.; Canis ochropus orcutti ssp. nov.]. Memoirs of the University of California, 1 (2), 217-272." We have a pix of his mandible here that could be uploaded: http://calphotos.berkeley.edu/cgi/img_query?enlarge=0000+0000+1214+0091 and Meacham 2012 makes an intriguing comment "We analyzed the SoCal coyote subspecies (C. l. ochropus; n = 17) separately from all other subspecies because this group likely represents the descendants of the Pleistocene coyote populations." which I assume means the Californian-region Pleistocene populations. Does anyone know if C.o.o is the ancestor of C.l.o, and if so did it exist in the Late Pleistocene or Holocene? We also have Canis latrans harriscrooki - Slaughter, 1961 in the Pleistocene of Texas: https://sites.smu.edu/shulermuseum/type_specimens/SMU60315.html and http://www.jstor.org/stable/1377369?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents Does anybody know anything about him?

We also have, but there is very scant info on: Regards,  William Harris  &#124;talk 08:46, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Pleistocene coyote
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Pleistocene coyote's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "way2010": From Eastern coyote:  From Coyote:  

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 10:46, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
