Coyotes have expanded north and eastward. They are exploding in population and the only way to control their population is to eliminate their food or to have natural predators, that is mother nature. To eliminate one or two coyotes and to leave their food source, will only allow for a new pack to move in.

There is no good way to kill a wild animal in my mind :sad:.

Sooooooo, to me that leaves education and safe practises to ensure pets and children are safe. If you have pets, they usually know before we do that there are coyotes in the area, learn to read their signs that there is something outside that is not right.

And yes they will attack children, they have even attacked teens, but on the whole, they are afraid of humans.
