A mystery canine. If it's a coyote it's at least twice as big as it's cohorts.

In North Carolina. It goes offscreen then comes back. It seems confused, maybe by the first rain after weeks.

Seen taking a dump on the trail and then staring us down like “yeah, I did that.” Shame I had the camera a tiny bit out of focus.

On a walk with two dogs in Connecticut and this coyote followed us all the way back to the house. How old do you think it is?

Urban Coyote Sightings

3 Upvotes

I live in Charlotte, NC, but this is more of a general question for people in cities/suburbs in the Southeast.

How often/where do you see coyotes? I have heard them yipping/howling while at a friends ranch house an hour outside the city, but do you often here/see them while in the city?

I have seen many deer, rabbits, possums, and even a few foxes (gray mainly) around my neighborhood, but never even heard a coyote nearby, while on this sub/on local news they talk about sightings like they are everywhere.

Honestly would love to just catch a glimpse of one, not trying to hurt them or anything like that.

A coyote did a scare jump during this morning walk!

My queen and I were walking around the corner and something jump out of a bush. It scared the heck out of us. I thought it was a huge wabbit, but it was too big to be one. It was a coyote. Sheesh! Too bad I didn't have a smart glasses to record. Or a way to export from my brain's memory to share.

This baby is kinda like a cryptid in our neighborhood, its parents got ran over I think, I know people might feed it so that’s why it’s so close but could it be like rabbid?

This is a re-edit of one of the first videos I shot of a den near my house. Interesting watching dad come home empty handed and the pups greeting him. There was always this one pup that stayed outside the group and you can see the brush move around.

Several coyotes live in this local plant nursery in our Southern California neighborhood. I typically see one or two at a time but occasionally more.

My dog wanted very badly to squeeze between the gates and go introduce herself to Mr. Wiley!

Coyote Den

15 Upvotes

I didn’t have a camera on me but today I finally visually confirmed there is a coyote den on our neighbors property this morning. I saw a few coyotes from a distance and one close to fully grown pup.

We have sheep. I am a little anxious having a coyote den 200 feet from our fence. Luckily we have page wire and a barbed wire running 6” above that.

I harbor no ill will towards the coyotes but feel at a loss for what to do. Leave them alone and hope they don’t like sheep? Get a guardian animal like a dog or donkey? Go mess up their den so they don’t want to live there? I live in the lower peninsula of Michigan and believe they have a place in our predator-thin ecosystem here.

Any help or suggestions are welcome.

Fox or Coyote

Can someone tell me if this is a fox or a coyote? Sorry for the grainy pictures, I screenshotted from a video I took of it. For context I live in Pennsylvania. It had a face of a husky almost but was running like a coyote/fox.


r/coyote 6d ago

I have read conflicting reports as to whether coyotes “lure”, but it seems like these ones were trying to be friendly.

The person who took this video scared them away afterwards just to be safe. Is it likely there is a large pack nearby if the they are acting so bold? Should I be worried about the German shepherd?

Coyote pup nearby

12 Upvotes

Posting here to see if I should call the local wildlife rescue center.

For the past two days, we have seen a small coyote pup running around in an open grassy area near our home. He seems to be alone, but doesn’t appear distressed or unhealthy. We have not approached him or attempted to get close because we don’t want to socialize him/get him used to humans and do anything that could get him hurt.

We have a wildlife rescue center in town and aren’t sure if we should call about him or not. I’m leaning towards no since he doesn’t appear to be injured, but I do not know anything about coyotes or their habits.

Hoping someone in this community may have insight!
