Another coyote was spotted in Queens this week checking out LaGuardia Airport, according to officials at the Port Authority
This was the third sighting of the year in the borough, with this metropolitan canid seen near La Guardia International Airport.
A U.S. deliveryman saw the coyote around 82nd Street near the Marine Terminal just west of the airport by the Grand Central Parkway around 2 a.m. Thursday, the Port Authority said.
The PA’s Emergency Services Unit and the NYPD responded, but were unable to follow the coyote, authorities said. The elusive animal ran toward Elmjack Field, which is not airport property.
There have been no further sightings.
A coyote was spotted on the roof of a Long Island City bar earlier this spring and a fellow traveler was caught last week in Middle Village.
