The coyote’s scientific name is Canis latrans, and it’s the only species of its kind. However, there are at least 19 recognized subspecies, each adapted to different climates and regions across North and Central America. They are also known by several other names, including brush wolves, prairie wolves, little wolf, and American jackals.
