NASCAR DRIVER HITS COYOTE PHOTOS
Not even Acme rocket-powered roller-skates could have saved this coyote. On June 5 Scene Daily reported that Joe Gibbs Racing driver Brad Coleman hit a coyote while driving 190 mph during testing at the Toyota Arizona Proving Grounds. Coleman saw the coyote from about 100 feet away. There was no time to react. This is how he described the carnage: “It just started smoking like crazy. And it smelled terrible. I didn’t see anything in the mirror, so I was like, ‘I wonder where it went?’"
If you want to see where it went, check out the (warning: graphic!) photos below.
The next two pics would explain the terrible smell.
Some Web site commenters claim these photos are real. Others say they are fake. What do you think?
*** UPDATE: Chris Helein, the communications director for Joe Gibbs Racing, e-mailed me to say, "I’m told it did happen unfortunately for the Coyote – so I assume they are real. I don’t know where the photos came from however – but they seem to have been making their rounds through email and the Internet this week."

I know most people who live in the country and have cattle don't like coyotes. But I got news for you a coyotes kills to eat and a pack of dogs will just kill for the fun of it. God put them on this earth for a reason to take down animals that are not heathly and strong. They also kill rabbits that would take over the grassland and your garden if it wasn't for the coyote. There is a purpose for the animals that God has made and maybe one of these days everything and everyone will live in peace. I'm glad the driver wasn't injury in this, that could have been a very bad wreck.
Didn't you hear? There's no such thing as God.
HUH?! Why do they let 2nd graders making little cut outs of bunnies and cute birdies on to this website?
