  1. Coyote attacked my cat and killed him on my aunts front lawn years ago as she was babysitting him, terrible day will never forget it still haunts me and makes me sick thinking about it as I wish I was there to fight the thing…

    1. Ya it sucks. The farm cats wander too far then never come back. Family needs to stop bringing them out there. They are just coyote snacks.

  2. Not that this is an acceptable situation, but it isn’t coyotes in people’s spaces, It’s the ever growing city in coyote spaces.

    1. the problem is they have “small pets”
      gotta have big dogs where they live.. labradors are easy to train and vicious to coyotes..

    2. @Not A Stone No dog has much of a chance against a pack of Coyotes. Sometimes one coyote will lure the dog away from the house while the others circle around behind it.

    3. @Not A Stone House cats have been videoed protecting children. They don’t always have to be large, just loved and scrappy in a fight. The problem is that neighborhood is virtually surrounded by the natural landscape. Developers should be required to design open buffer zones, fences and perhaps busy roads to isolate the neighborhood from the wildlife they are displacing.

  3. Yikes I live in NW and whenever I walk my dog in the ravine nearby, I have to be super careful. They need to do something about it.

    1. And do what? They are not a threat to humans. Your pet’s life is entirely your responsibility, get some bear spray.

    2. @terrance kerr well they are by the hundreds of thousands every year. More than any other nation in terms of population vs volume.

    1. i lived on a sideroad and i saw coyotes all the time.. never once attacked by one.. my dogs killed more than i can count.. any time they came on the property my dogs started hunting them down and always got at least one of them.

  4. get a big dog like a labrador.. the coyotes wont be a problem anymore..

    my dogs killed many coyotes.. they tended to avoid our property after some time..

  5. this is what happens when you put new communities in and take wildlife away.
    they should be thankful it was them and not their child…
