It's coolant from the radiator. Toyota uses red color at the factory.

My toyota uses the green stuff but the radiator is shared with transmission so it could be that, or coyote fluid.
FrancoUnAmerican
Could be transmission liquid too. it's red and the cooler is attached on the radiator.
thatwoodguy
Transmission coolers share part of the radiator. My Ford trucks have their on the left side
Granddellfthegrand
Better question would be: "Why is it daytime in the one photo and night time in the other one? How long was he stuck in there?"
I'm going to say first one was early morning. The way the picture was taken was a "oh shit". The 2nd one was when the wildlife people came.
jjman070
From what I heard a few days ago when I first saw this, it was near dawn in the first pic and the second was when wildlife came.
oops reverse that. No coffee yet. Dark one = morning. Light = sunrise

Airdrie to Calgary isn't even 20 minutes unless it's all the way across Calgary. Source: Calgarian

He said early morning, so probably an hour or 2.
littlepete96
Pro tip for future: If You run something over with Your car, stop, get out and examine what happened. It could be someones dog or cat.
thedarkcanuck
If it was hit near Airdrie, which is close to Calgary, that's on a really busy highway and it might have been hard to stop safely
He did stop. The one photo is in the early morning and the other photo is in the day time.
Mslk3
That's no better, when he just left it there.

THANK YOU. Even if it is a wild animal, how could you leave that poor animal laying in agony on the side of the road?! :'(

What do you do go back and kill it?
IncitatusForConsul
No, you can call wildlife officials and they will put the animal out of agony. They don't like it when you do it yourself.
ephemra
I would at least check the damage...
LittleM128
Note that he did say it was "highway speeds" so it was likely nowhere near a point he could pull over and check or move the body safely.
If you hit someones cat, dog or other animal on the road they are liable for the damages so check for that too.
insilico
Yikes. I can't imagine going up to someone and saying "Hey I hit and killed your dog.... Now pay me for the damage they caused."
HoeSay
You wouldn't want to pay it yourself either.. we hit a dog bc it was an inside dog that was taken out and not looked after (would chasecars)
It was a blind corner and we couldn't brake in time..it wasn't our faultor dogs since it didnt know better.But someone had to be held liable
That being said if I can save someones pet, I will, sometimes you are just SOL and they run away on the road.
wickedleeloo
THIS. HOW can you knowingly run over an animal w/out stopping to check if they're dead or even just to put them off the road ? Jeez.
aboxacaraflatafan
It's insane how many times I've heard some variation of "Oh, I think it's dead." when asked if they stopped. Like... SO? Get out and check!
Many people likely just don't want to have to deal with fish and wildlife.

while i like both foxes and coyotes if i could pick one as a pet i'd go with a coyote (neither should be a pet tho)
Foxes have been domesticated though...
NotACanadian
Over here they lure dogs by pretending to be playful and them tear them apart. Coyote is a master of deceit.
MatthewBerg
They're little fucking assholes is why. Raccoons are the same. Most raccoons are not the cute curious types you think they are. All jerks.
mycatToastwasafatasshole
Here in AZ Coyotes are known to eat cats and dogs out of people's backyards.
BustedHelmet
coyotes around here will even send out one of their pack to act injured around outside dogs to lure them out and then the whole pack 1/2
will attack kill and eat the dog which to me seems like a pretty good reason to hate coyotes over foxes (don't have wolves around here) 2/2
Haloghost2
Well in my case when i was 5 my brother locked me out of the house at night and told me coyotes liked to eat little blonde haired girls.
ShelbyTheDESTROYER
This time last year we had 5 guineas and 16 chickens. Now we have 1 guinea and 9 chickens. They eat what you've worked so hard to raise...
They killed two of my barn cats too. I know they're just trying to survive but it's hard to like something that ate your pets.
skellington01
Roadrunner, we all grew up with roadrunner. There are no shows where coyotes are cool.
CaptainSarcasmAwaaay
Yeah, but the roadrunner was an asshole, the coyote was the scrappy underdog you root for. We all *wanted* him to eat that goddamn bird.
lovetorun
lived in El Paso, a pack would terrize our neighbor hood at night. So the community tried getting rid of the dumpsters in an attempt to

survive.* Though I really dont hate coyotes myself, I can see why ppl do.
Dreadpyr8Westley
Sort of related. I used to live on 13 acres of forest land in sw Washington, and I would camp out in my backyard often. I was once (1)
...visited by either a pack of wolves or a small group of coyotes. It was dark, all I could see was a few pairs of eyes and vague canid (2)
...shapes in the darkness. I was also 14. I think they were too small to be wolves. Anyway, I was an idiot, and I'd feed the wildlife (3)
...I kept dogfood with me to feed to the raccoons. My chickens were never touched... The coyotes moved on. Nothing exciting... (.)
I see them as dogs that's why I like them.
getmo
Coyotes eat dogs. When you live in an area with them, you won't see them the same anymore. Overpopulated, invasive species.
I do live in an area with them, don't leave your dogs out over night. They're just trying to live life.
Vyet
Wolves are rare and foxes don't kill peoples pets very often.
rabbiebabbie
I have a fox that runs around my mom's neighborhood and he's so nice he comes right up to you begging for food and he smells like ass :)
kittehofauthoritah
A pack of coyotes stalked my puppies and even called to them. They lure dogs away and then eat them. They also stink to high heaven.
orangecicle
If only there was something you could put on your dog to make sure it doesn't run off... Like a... Harness. Or a... Leash. Oh. Wait.
They were inside fenced yard. Amazingly, coyotes do not understand fencing.
Mm sure
YesButAlsoYes
I get the impression you live in an urban area and have never seen a wild animal
Letmeeatyourassplz
Coyote killed my cat
SweetJackal
Wolves don't wander near human settlements, coyotes do. Your cat or dog is too big for a fox to see as food- but not to a coyote. 1/2
And just to make things worse, your 2-4 year old kid is small enough for them to consider them for a meal. Big deal in rural Canada. 2/2
Definitely a pack thing. I don't know much about foxes, but I assume they're loners. Coyotes are about same size, but the pack can feast.
coyotes are definitely larger than foxes about double the size
I know how big coyotes are, about a small dog. If you have a Medium dog, they're a little smaller than that. Foxes are half that size??
Saustino
We have coyotes in Portland, OR. My cat was attacked and survived, was about $500 and months to recover. Then she disappeared a year later.
A neighbor found a coyote den in their backyard that was overrun with blackberry bushes. Bones everywhere. Most likely some were my cats.
tammyfromthelibrary
Coyotes attack livestock. This is a big deal if you're a farmer.
Yeah because humans can't outsmart animals. LOL
moto192834
We do outsmart them, with guns
Lol yah. K. Any moron can use a gun. That's hardly intelligence..
It doesn't take much, but I don't see any coyotes smart enough to use one
gtmiller
And children
Rudywasoffside
That's why we always kept a couple donkeys around. They're naturally aggressive to canines, especially coyotes.
ActionJohnnie

CaptainLegot
Around here they eat people's pet dogs, chickens, and the occasional child.
when those idiots leave them outside
They get the chance to do so because people are too stupid to be responsible for small animals and children.
ITalkAboutGoats
Chickens are really hard to keep safe, I'm just saying that.
Nah.

You sleep in the coop with all of the hens or something?
1/ Wolves are rare and 90% of people will never see a wild one. Foxes are small, timid and keep rodent populations in check.

fartytowels
I'm in Australia and I work with a lady from London who told me foxes are really smelly... that took me by surprise.
Smelly and sound like dying babies
No kidding. Well, you learn something new every day.
2/ Coyotes are big, everywhere and fearless. They are assholes that will eat your cat, dog or anything smaller than it.
Oh shit maybe watch your fucking pets. Problem solved.
icookfoodandfightfire
not much you can do if they break into your backyard. My brother lives in upstate NY and they will jump fences to get a pet in a backyard
Andilee
They sound like hyenas. Stayed at a friend's house in the middle of know where and they freaked me out. Never knew they made that noise
WafflesMcGee
Crying babies?
Dahlerbill
What kind of coyotes are you talking about? The ones here (New Mexico) are super timid. They wouldn't go near an average sized dog.
Paprika6
That's why if you live where coyotes are you don't fucking let your cat outside...watched one get ripped apart/taken off a month ago.
Where? Edmonton, AB. In the middle of a big fucking city. :/
Wolves are rare because we've killed them all. And still love doing it to the point where we poison their newborn pups in the den.

And they fuck like crazy. They say that they know when other coyotes die, and they go into gear because of it to regen the population. They>
Heat * not gear.
DetectiveGaff
Same thing. Also solid typo considering the post
>> do this by the specific calls. Its just a theory now, but it makes sense. Their populations never really seem to dwindle.

And just to make things worse, your 2-4 year old kid is small enough for them to consider them for a meal. Big deal in rural Canada. 2/2

Definitely a pack thing. I don't know much about foxes, but I assume they're loners. Coyotes are about same size, but the pack can feast.
BustedHelmet
coyotes are definitely larger than foxes about double the size
getmo
I know how big coyotes are, about a small dog. If you have a Medium dog, they're a little smaller than that. Foxes are half that size??

We have coyotes in Portland, OR. My cat was attacked and survived, was about $500 and months to recover. Then she disappeared a year later.

A neighbor found a coyote den in their backyard that was overrun with blackberry bushes. Bones everywhere. Most likely some were my cats.

Coyotes attack livestock. This is a big deal if you're a farmer.
orangecicle
Yeah because humans can't outsmart animals. LOL
moto192834
We do outsmart them, with guns
orangecicle
Lol yah. K. Any moron can use a gun. That's hardly intelligence..
moto192834
It doesn't take much, but I don't see any coyotes smart enough to use one

And children

That's why we always kept a couple donkeys around. They're naturally aggressive to canines, especially coyotes.

Tijuana?
CaptainLegot
Around here they eat people's pet dogs, chickens, and the occasional child.
CongratsYouAreHereNow
when those idiots leave them outside
orangecicle
They get the chance to do so because people are too stupid to be responsible for small animals and children.

Chickens are really hard to keep safe, I'm just saying that.
orangecicle
Nah.

You sleep in the coop with all of the hens or something?

1/ Wolves are rare and 90% of people will never see a wild one. Foxes are small, timid and keep rodent populations in check.

Squirrels are considered vermin there.

Werewolves in London. Confirmed.

I'm in Australia and I work with a lady from London who told me foxes are really smelly... that took me by surprise.
ITalkAboutGoats
Smelly and sound like dying babies
fartytowels
No kidding. Well, you learn something new every day.

2/ Coyotes are big, everywhere and fearless. They are assholes that will eat your cat, dog or anything smaller than it.
orangecicle
Oh shit maybe watch your fucking pets. Problem solved.
icookfoodandfightfire
not much you can do if they break into your backyard. My brother lives in upstate NY and they will jump fences to get a pet in a backyard
Andilee
They sound like hyenas. Stayed at a friend's house in the middle of know where and they freaked me out. Never knew they made that noise

Crying babies?

What kind of coyotes are you talking about? The ones here (New Mexico) are super timid. They wouldn't go near an average sized dog.

That's why if you live where coyotes are you don't fucking let your cat outside...watched one get ripped apart/taken off a month ago.
Paprika6
Where? Edmonton, AB. In the middle of a big fucking city. :/

Wolves are rare because we've killed them all. And still love doing it to the point where we poison their newborn pups in the den.

And they fuck like crazy. They say that they know when other coyotes die, and they go into gear because of it to regen the population. They>
StankyPankySammich
Heat * not gear.
DetectiveGaff
Same thing. Also solid typo considering the post
StankyPankySammich
>> do this by the specific calls. Its just a theory now, but it makes sense. Their populations never really seem to dwindle.

Wolves help, but humans are retarded and keep hunting them.
CongratsYouAreHereNow
coyotes only eat your animals if you're a fucking dope and leave them outside

Oh god I forgot to bring the chickens goats and rabbits in the house for the night. Silly me.

I'm talking about cats and dogs
