Coyote

The coyote is capable of running at speeds of more than 30 mph. Its distinct howl, coupled with short high-pitched yelps, can be heard as far away as 3 miles. Coyotes are very adaptable, living in many different kinds of habitats, including deep forest, suburban areas and even in cities like Portland, Augusta and Bangor.
