Why would a coyote have a collar on? Is it a wolf being tracked by F&W? Canid for sure.

Where was the picture taken? Doesn't look like a yote and not quite like a wolf either, almost looks like a hybred. Strange critter.

I concur with .300 winmag and C-money. Strange looking animal. The long snout and appearance of being long legged makes it look like that of a wolf.  But the rusty brown coloration visible makes it look like a coyote. But why would a coyote be wearing a collar? ..... strange indeed.

If the date stamp is accurate and given the plant stage, I would say Michigan collared study wolf. The hair and body condition would be normal for summer.
