Eastern coyotes have been shown to have a significant percentage of wolf DNA which is why they are larger than genetically purer coyote populations from out west and could explain a somewhat wolf-like appearance in certain individuals.

They mark the houses for the kids to avoid trick or treating as it's statistically a much higher probability that houses with these signs are inhabited pedophiles.

Right? And then had the 3yo decide of their own free will to use the money to make a campaign donation back to the father?
Happens all the time...

But he honestly thinks that his legal right to gift money family members overrides campaign finance rules.

You are mistaken. Absolutely nowhere has that happened. Not on Reddit and not in real life. Sorry bud.

You need to understand your beef is with them, not other Vermonters who have seen higher spikes in their own housing costs and faced unprecedented housing shortages.

That's about as far from reality as you can get. I am in favor of high minimum wage for everyone, and universal basic income.

I get that, still only $20.
Your food receipt is up more than $20.

Still, you are getting off easy compared to most renters in Vermont. 30-50% increases have been common, folks are paying $1500 for 1br apartments in buildings with equally lax management.

The general gist I get from neighbors, coworkers, folks I know around town, etc is that Vermonters have been travelling more this summer and fall as well, probably in line with the rest of the US.
Weekends in NYC, busloads down to Foxborough for a game, flying down to the coast somewhere warmer, the casino in CT, Jersey Shore, Vegas, Nashville, whatever.
More movement, more potential for anything to spread.
It's like people forget that tourism goes both ways. Anyone who has pics of their own trips on social media isn't allowed to complain about leaf peepers or skiers or any other visitors to me.

If you've been around the sub long enough to develop your hypothesis you'll also notice that people living in Vermont but not from Vermont are often considered out of staters no matter how long they've lived here.

This seems like a good place to point out again that more than half of Vermont residents surveyed (survey, not census) indicated they were from somewhere else originally.
It's my favorite "nobody believes it" topic related to Vermont.

Situational awareness works better than guidelines but we as humans on average aren't particularly good at either.

65/25/10 or therabouts seems to be what studies have found.
It's interesting that there may be a correlation between habitat and genetic admixture based on prey size. Eastern coyotes in more settled or urban habitats of New England have tended to be smaller, like a coyote, and show less wolf DNA in their lineage. Those in more remote habitats, especially where large populations of deer are found, are often larger and this is most likely due to the greater percentage of wolf genetics in their makeup.
So in effect there are two distinct groups of hybrids developing in the northeast over time.
Overall it's a fascinating subject for someone like me with a background in wildlife ecology and evolutionary biology. I am jealous of the folks who get to study stuff like this for a living.
