luckily the coyote didn't have time to throw an ACME instant hole onto the runway, this could've been far worse.

About two months ago, I was cleared position and hold on ATL RWY 27R behind a departing Airtran 73. About half way down the runway, the Airtran reported that they were aborting because they "blew a tire". I suspect that they were near V1, because they were way down the runway. Then the captain came on and said they "hit a coyote" and needed to "inspect the airplane to see if anything fell off". It was quite comical. They pulled over on Lima and their mtc checked them out. Then the airport ops vehicles had to inspect the runway for the "missing parts" and indeed found a dead coyote around the intersection of 27R and Dixie.

So it's not just small airports. Who'd have thunk a coyote in the middle of 'da ATL?
