A Coyote Jumps Over the Moon.

A coyote jumps high in its "mousing" maneuver to catch a rodent.

A Coyote "Mousing." Point Reyes National Seashore

Pardon the hyperbole, but if a cow can jump over the moon why not a coyote?  This photo was taken last winter.  I’ve never seen a coyote jump this high while mousing (or doing anything else).   This is the coyote I’ve covered before, including the day before yesterday, with the injured right foreleg.  It looks swollen at the wrist.  Nevertheless, he landed front feet first.
