    When I lived in Mississauga, ONT, there were signs stating to get out of the park after 11pm as the coyotes may attack. I always laughed when I saw the sign at 1am when I use to walk Cyrus the Staffy. They'll only go after the smaller animals, not a big dog or a human (unless they are ill, but that doesn't count IMO)... THere are also a lot of people who feed them in the winter as they keep the rodent populations WAY down in the summer.... but sadly there is an illness going around right now that killed a lot of them, coons, & skunks

    I'm really not against them living in cities, as we need them & they are usually anti social, well except the semi tame ones that stupid people create/feed by hand... idiots...

    We had a coyote den up along the line fence last summer. This winter when we went out snowshoeing the coyotes watched us while we watched them. We use to have one come up onto the porch & eat the dog food. They eat & kill baby calves in the spring along with cats. We had a rescue dog years ago & she was enticed into the woods by a pack of coyotes. She came out alive but with scratch marks all over her body & a big hunk of skin torn of her shoulder area. The coyotes are crafty animals.

    You know, a lot of people around here say that coyotes are ugly. I never understood that, as I have away thought them to be very beautiful. You're lucky to be so fortunate to see them every day!

    I don't think we have them in Florida but I'm not sure. I've never seen one in person. Amazing pictures, Sandie.


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!
