The thing is, coyotes aren't aggressive. Or particularly destructive either. They have the benign appearance and demeanor of shy dogs. It would take a lot of effort to witness a coyote being violent. As prey, you'd likely never see a coyote being aggressive towards you until you're being jumped by the pack. So in most situations there's no evidence they are anything but cute and harmless. That's their adaptation.
