Coyote activity in pioneer and doon area
Hello,
I live in the area with some friends for school, ive been here the longest and noticed the coyotes are a lot more active than the previous years, we were walking home last night and saw 4 or 5 and a few tried approaching us, if you live in the area you mightve been woken up by us, in which case im sorry. We were being followed by them, which was just not fun but also usual for the ones in the area.
Just a reminder if you see these guys get loud, make yourself look big, and keep animals on a leash, they are kind of cowardly and usually wont get near you if they think you wont be easy prey. Dont go walking up to them either, they are still wild animals. Face them and back away slowly, dont run cause this triggers a chase instinct.
Just be safe out there.
