One of the last places you'd expect to find a coyote would probably be Point-Saint-Charles.

A trapper from the Outaouais recently took three coyotes that had moved onto the Via Rail property adjoining the community.

Experts suspect the animals made it across to the island using either the road or rail bridges.

The trappers were called in because some  local residents had begun feeding the animals and treating them as pets.

Officials say the coyotes could not be humanely trapped and re-settled for fear of rabies transmission.
