I dont think LI has any wolves, and foxes are rare.
I think there also used to Coyotes here too, but they too were killed off.

Wolves have been driven out of most of the eastern U.S. over 100 years ago.
Coyotes are common from Westchester County northward (A few sightings in the Bronx).
Foxes are common throughout the state including large undeveloped parks in Queens/Staten Island/Bronx. I know for a fact that Alley Pond park in Queens has both red and grey fox.
