#1: Coyotes
#2: Fox
Picture #1: the critters are far rangier-built, scrawny tails, generally scruffier-looking. The fox in Picture 2 is sleeker, built lower to the ground (foxes are a lot smaller than coyotes) with a far bushier tail. Also both of the animals in Picture # has a black mane along it's back. The animal in the second picture doesn't.
In any case, I'd be worried if the critters in either picture approaches anyone. Just read an article in the St. Paul Pioneer Press that America has had it's greatest outbreak of rabies cases in years, and both foxes and coyotes are known carriers of rabies.
Plus, none of the three animals are wearing a mask...
