One of the coyotes that mauled a young woman to death last week wasn't hungry or diseased.

Preliminary results from a necropsy on the wild dog confirm it was one of two animals involved in the attack on Toronto folks singer Taylor Mitchell.

Chip Bird with Parks Canada tells the Herald, there was no evidence of rabies or any other physical problem with the young female.

He says the coyote had food in its system and wasn't starving.

He could not say whether it had been getting human food. Officials have often
warned that wild animals will lose their fear of people when they're fed by hand.

The Skyline Trail where the incident happened is still closed.

Parks Canada is talking to other wildlife experts in hopes of getting answers about what else may have caused the dogs to attack.

The hunt continues for the second coyote.
