The problem is they've grown accustomed to urban environments, are way more fearless than they used to be.

I live rural (Ontario) and we hear but never see them. But if you go into town, they're a frequent occurrence. Grabbing people's pets and stuff.

If it was just foxes... fine. But coyotes can be a problem.

Once an owl sat on the porch railing, looking into the window. It was huge! What a magnificent sight.

Good. Outdoor cats are a bigger problem than a few native coyotes.

I’m definitely pro coyote but they’ve been known to snatch a leashed small dog while on a walk in Texas exurbs.

don't get me wrong, i'm on team coyote and i keep my cat indoors. i like to listen to them yip at night around here when they've cornered a rabbit or something

but i've seen stories/footage of people's dogs-on-leashes getting attacked and that's a bit scary
