The coyote's diet includes a wide variety of small mammals, livestock, birds, reptiles, carrion, fruit, and vegetables. It is one of the few animals that has enlarged its range since human encroachment began. Which is the most likely reason for this? It has adapted its diet to include more variety, thereby increasing its food supply.
It has intermingled with human pets, such as the dog, to increase its population.
It has migrated to ranges with more favorable, moderate climates.
It has an increase in nest and shelter sites within the urban and rural range.

It has adapted its diet to include more variety, thereby increasing its food supply.

Explanation:

Adaptation refers to the process by which species adjust (i.e., adapt) to their environments. Coyotes adapted very well to the presence of humans, and they have adjusted their diet to what foods are available, thereby increasing their range of distribution. Coyotes are omnivores that have the ability to eat both plants (e.g., fruit, mesquite beans, flowers, etc) and animals (e.g., insects, lizards, rabbits, rodents, etc.). Moreover, coyotes can hunt small prey alone or larger prey in small groups of animals that work together to hunt down prey species.

the principles of art and design are balance, contrast, emphasis, movement, pattern, rhythm, and unity/variety.
