The coyote to the right was caught on video running loose in the middle of Chicago at 3:00 am on Monday morning. The police didn't seem to know what it was doing there, but Brad Block, a supervisor for the Chicago Commission on Animal Care and Control told Chicago Breaking News that the coyote is let loose in the city to monitor the pest population:
The animal has the run of the Loop to help deal with rats and mice. He said no one has called today to complain. "He's not a threat.... He's not going to pick up your children," Block said. "His job is to deal with all of the nuisance problems, like mice, rats and rabbits."
