## Resource

Most of us go into the woods looking for a break from day-to-day life- a soft reset, a chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and disappear into nature for a while. But on an October afternoon in Nova Scotia’s Cape Breton Highlands National Park, a 19-year-old musician with a budding career stepped onto one of the park’s most popular trails… and never made it back. This is the story of Taylor Mitchell- and the rare, terrifying attack that changed how people in Canada, and beyond, think about coyotes forever.
