https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coyote_attack https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coyote_attack has a wealth of information on the topic. It seems likely that the attacks are due to animals becoming habituated to being in close proximity with humans and is probably exacerbated by being fed.
- newman8r 8y agoYeah a lot of people are clueless about coyotes. I have some land in the desert and one of my neighbors actually feeds the damn things, it's insanity. He Also tried to claim that coyotes don't carry rabies. Needless to say he does not have internet access. They're the biggest coyotes I've ever seen and they're not fearful of humans.
- justin66 8y agoThe sure-fire solution to the problem of intrusive coyotes is a bit ironic. They're extremely difficult to cull anywhere because they normally roam very far. When they move into an urban area a cull isn't much of an option anyhow. The solution that nature provides to coyotes, and many intrusive species, would be (ahem) to introduce wolves. Coyotes get some pretty mixed signals about whether an area is worth the risk when people try to drive them away but nevertheless keep livestock or trash nearby. The presence of wolves is unambiguous.
