The 4-year-old male coyote residing in a 266-square foot enclosure as part of the Cook County Forest Preserve s Ambassador Animal program at the River Trail Nature Center in Northbrook is scheduled to be moved to a space nearly 10 times as large, but that plan doesn t seem adequate to animal-rights activists who, instead, want him moved to a Colorado wildlife sanctuary.
Complaints from animal rights advocates regarding the coyote, dubbed “Rocky,” prompted the forest preserve to review its ambassador animal program. A report was released Tuesday, outlining changes to the program, including a bigger enclosure for the coyote.
