Eastern Coyote (Canis latrans var.) at Hibou Conservation Area
The Owen Sound Field Naturalists Collection, #1
The Eastern Coyote (Canis latrans) is a highly adaptable predator found throughout Ontario, including Grey and Bruce Counties. Larger than western coyotes due to hybridization with wolves, they play a key role as mesopredators, controlling small mammal and deer populations.
✨ 15% will be donated to conservation from all OSFN Collection original paintings ✨
In a collaboration to highlight the enjoyment of our backyard wildlife here in Ontario, the Owen Sound Field Naturalists and signature member of Artists for Conservation, Sarah McComb Turbitt, created a challenge to paint as many local species as she can during March 2026. 15% of original artworks, 35% of limited-edition prints, and 50% of artwork cards will be donated to OSFN. The Owen Sound Field Naturalists promotes and fosters learning about nature through their ongoing programs and sponsorships. They support a wide variety of activities, including a Young Naturalists Program, stewardship of many natural heritage properties in Grey Bruce Counties, interpretive signage, presentations by knowledgeable speakers and outdoor excursions with experienced leaders.
Reference photography for inspiration was kindly provided by David Vermont, thank you!
All original artwork is hand-signed by Sarah McComb-Turbitt and includes a certificate of authenticity and white cotton gloves for handling the painting upon delivery.
