I watch this as I’m outside on my porch in Kansas City and there’s always a lot of them howling the next street over by the woods as they are right now. My pit got out ONE night (I do rescue and I know the importance on keeping your dogs secure) but I searched ALL night until I finally found him the next day, he was exhausted and pretty banged up w some wounds but you could clearly see he fought a group of coyotes that I’m sure approached him or he accidentally walked into one of their “traps” and he clearly put up one hell of a fight. It’s safe to say, he won and had so much blood running from his mouth that was NOT his. I know he was determined he was getting out of their alive and coming home to his family. It broke my heart but I’m glad he didn’t back down and he’s back where he belongs and been by my side every since. ❤️

[@kansasgoldilocks]

Hello. Just a PSA here. Coyotes are urban wildlife. They have long lived among us in cities just like a number of birds, squirrels, etc. They will eat small dogs and cats. Sometimes they'll even lure large dogs back to their pack. That said, they are just living their life and surviving. Urbanites just need to be aware of who their neighbors are. I am always amazed at the people in my Nextdoor community who are surprised or afraid that they saw a coyote outside. Even worse are the people who feed them, habituating them to people. Just leave them alone, watch your pets and children.

I would recommend a Labrador or similar breed. Two members of my family have been bitten by dogs, both occasions by German Shepherds (not their dogs)...20+ years apart. They seem to make great work dogs for the military, police force, etc., but I wouldn't trust them as a family pet.

[@lindsayceara]

@@kristinab1078 they’re great family pets, I have one and all 3 of my nephews live with me. She’s great with everyone and they’re great guard dogs/protectors. Any dog/animal can be unpredictable but I think the main issue was that the dogs who bit your family members were not theirs, they didn’t grow up around them so they weren’t used to them and they obviously hadn’t been trained or socialized, unless the people were doing something to make them act out like that. The only dog I would not suggest (especially around kids) are Pitbulls. I’ve had dogs my whole life, all different breeds, and Labradors are definitely great family dogs but they’re not the best at protecting/guarding. We’re talking about dealing with coyotes here lol but they’re very sweet dogs.

@@lindsayceara I'm sure your German Shepherd is a good one. I hope to meet a German Shepherd I actually feel comfortable around one day.

As a Floridian, banging something or shouting “HEY!” is usually enough. If it’s not, you need to be on high alert because that coyote wasn’t just curious. If it stays and is persistent you need to be very careful, and keep scaring it off. Get louder, even throw things near the coyote, and all else fails, protect yourself at whatever cost. The chance of being attacked as an adult is slim but child attacks are getting shockingly common. Make sure your kids are aware as well and keep an eye on em.

And unlike 15+yrs ago (most our lives) we didn’t have access to countless apps showing us algorithmic suggestions from across the country & world. Never before were hundreds of millions of people watching & seeing the same clips for things to go viral.. In the past you’d have only really heard of it if it happened locally, & if you religiously watched your local news & read the papers. This sort of stuff would rarely make the national news unless there was major carnage, which is very rare. More rarely, was there any footage. And if there was, that would be of the caliber enough to take up air time. Now you hear about & have footage of EVERYTHING. It warps the perception of reality. Meanwhile 3k people a year in US die from aspirin, 19k die taking a shower.. & we are all infinitely more likely to be maimed the next time we cross a street, get in a car… or interact with another human being- **especially a male human- as you are FAR more likely to be killed by that specific creature than ANY other on this earth. Going one further- look up coyote fatalities & how many people each year are killed accidentally or on purpose by a child… Just saying- the internet with all its knowledge does not foster healthy or accurate perspective.

Please people, do NOT feed the stray rabbits and squirrels in your neighborhood! The increase in the invasive eastern cottontail rabbit is a contributing factor in the increased coyote population (and coyotes are invasive nonnative species in many states, too). And the eastern gray squirrel, also nonnative across much of its range, is feeding the coyotes too. Feed the prey animals, and you're feeding the coyotes. Everything is connected!!

[@Truechildofgod]

When are parents going to learn that if you want to keep your child safe you need to be by their side. More than animal attacks , there are child predators and several other factors that can occur. Your eyes don’t protect you need to be by your child’s side. I thank God the baby is okay.

Yes, the coyotes are up and about this spring- when they tend to be most rowdy and brazen. I’m in central Tucson + heard a pack yowling and chittering late last night- sounded like they were on a hunt- when they get really loud and rowdy like that it usually means they caught a meal.

Great coverage!

Oh no 😢😢

[@stargazer1313]

Lived close to here. Neighbors would put their cats and dogs outside. Numerous mangled cat bodies and over 10 dogs lost to coyotes. The people still keep putting their pets outside. This attracts the coyotes as they know there is a food source here. STUPID people!!!!

I hope people pay attention that these events are pretty rare. Dog bites and dog fatalities are far more prevalent in Arizona! Glad the kids in Phoenix weren't hurt seriously. Hopefully the little girl in California is able to recover without bad scars. Whether loose dogs or Coyotes you got to keep an eye on the little ones around them!

Last summer I spent the summer in Alaska at my uncle's. I shot and killed 50 Wolverines with my 12 gauge. They kept trying to attack cousins...Gosh!

[@originalkingalpha5116]

@@AH-rl9ev Wow! Did you skinn'em and use their hides for warmth; what about the meat? Did you all make some stew with taters and wolverine giblets? Whew! That sure sounds good!

Hope the baby is better now

The more we take away their habitats and hunting grounds, the more this will keep happening. They need to eat too, and even though we aren't typical prey, they are certainly easily capable of adjusting to change that!

[@lmt6672]

Ahh yes lets just all leave..

[@victoriarose4506]

@@lmt6672 I'm not implying anything like that, just mostly making an observation, although I do generally think we as humans take and take without giving much back. People still believe that these animals are shy and mostly harmless, except for maybe to your cats and small dogs. Just like people believe that bears are cool and cougars are cute. Then they do stupid shit, like feed them human food. Before it's all over with, kids won't be able to play outside and people won't be able to walk their dogs without having to worry about being attacked and dragged off as food.

[@scy1038]

That's scary, coyotes are usually skittish around humans. That's always been my experience at least, there are tons in the area I live in. Wonder what's causing this behavior? 🤔

The parents don't even have time to take out their garbage let alone keep an eye on their toddlers...

Yep that coyote was sniffing round that pile of rubbish, never leave rubbish out.
