A car that was dropped off for service in Florida, included a coyote wedged in the front grille.

A animal rescuer was dispatched to the Toyota dealership in Tallahassee when garage workers preparing to service a car that had been dropped off discovered a live coyote embedded in the grille.

Dealership technicians removed the front of the vehicle to allow the rescuer to safely extract the animal.

The rescue group said that the coyote underwent surgery for a leg injury and is expected to make a full recovery.
