Question Does anyone with a PhD in Wolves know if this is a wolf or coyote?

Saw this in Maryland, so wolf would be nuts.

Why were wolves eliminated from most of the US, while the coyotes population thrives? Gray wolves only exist in a handful states today. Red wolves are at the brink of extinction. Yet coyotes are numerous and widespread.
I would think that the forces (hunting, poisoning, habitat destruction, etc) that affected wolf populations would also affect coyotes, a closely related species. However, this is not the case. Does anyone have an explanation why?

Admittedly, for me it was because of a child trauma. I was 6yo when I first watched Diensy's Peter and The Wolf and this son of a bitch here
Scared the living crap out of me, so much in fact I can't bring myself to watch this scene even now that I'm nearing 39yo. But that very trauma brought me to get interest into wolves, maybe as a coping mechanism, I wouldn't know for sure, but still everything originated with this fella here, at least for me. What's your story? If there's a story to tell about it, that is

Heya! I was looking for a unique gift for my friend who is a massive wolf fan and discovered this Wolf pawprint cast! I was wondering if anyone had any additional information as to who signed the back of it. I'm guessing it's a seal of authorization but I'd love to know who's it is!

Wondering what kind of canine might of left these tracks. Road in a rural area of northern Bemidji, MN around Buena Vista State Forest. Prints traveled straight down the road for quite awhile. Thank you!

As the title says, yesterday a wolf marked its territory on our backyard.
We have a swimmable pond that's surrounded by woods on one side and I was planning on creating a lounge area there. So, I walked there yesterday with one of our dogs to check it out. Then in the evening I walked there again and there was a pungent odour of urine and even feces. There's a pack of 30 wolves in our area and they sometimes travel a swampy wooded area between my parents houses. I just didn't think they'd consider even our backyard their territory, which is probably stupid of me.
Anyway, my question is that would there be any way to deter the wolves from coming to our backyard? I heard human urine might deter them but it is true? Is there anything else to possibly do?
Sorry if this is not the right place to ask this. I tried searching for information but couldn't find much.

I brought great binoculars, and will be with a guide who will go where the wolves are. Any tips for making the most out of the most magical day in my life so far?

Heyo! Feels dumb to post but saw this critter in the forest preserve in northern Illinois. Originally thought coyote but the size, about 3ft tall 70-90lbs, fluffiness of the coat, and facial features make me rethink maybe wolf? If it’s not a wolf then it’s gotta be some sort of hybrid because it just doesn’t appear to be either one.

Hello! I’m in the Gila National Forest in NM where there are Mexican grey wolves. Could you help me figure me out if these are wolves or coyotes I heard last night? They went on like that for over 10 minutes very close by.

i've seen dogs mourn for their owners, and intelligent animals like elephants mourn, so i'm assuming wolves would mourn to. i looked it up but all the answers were something like "yeah when a packmate dies they have a huge procesion and bury it" which i doubt is true lol. but if a pup were to die, would they mourn at all? or would they not rly care? what if it was an older packmate?

I heard there used to be wolves in Texas but were mostly killed especially by farmers when protecting their livestock. Think wolves should maybe be reintroduce into Texas?

Most means of communicating with govt official days are calls and emails.
But I think letters?are good too.
What dept is who are the best places ro write? I know writing anyone but you own congressman is missing into the wind despite that congressional committed are impacting everyone (this pisses me off no end).
So that leaves Dept and Agencies for policy, enforcement etc.
All I got is Dept of Interior which has sub branches.
List everyone you think should be written to.
As to the limitations of congressional phone calls there is a work around sort of if people are interested.
