Coyote indulges in endless bird buffet after making daring 1.25-mile swim to Alcatraz

The adventurous coyote that has been living on Alcatraz since paddling more than a mile across the San Francisco Bay is growing “much fatter” thanks to the former prison island’s all-you-can-eat bird buffet. The yet-to-be-named canine is “well and thriving” on the 22-acre island — and has been feasting on fowl, whose carcasses he is apparently littering across the state-run grounds. “He not only survived, but he is well and thriving,” Janet Kessler, a “self-taught naturalist,” reported on her Instagram account that documents San Francisco’s urban coyote population.
