- A coyote was spotted roaming a Los Angeles neighborhood, a reminder that these wily neighbors are a regular part of city life, especially as they become more active during dawn, dusk, and nighttime hours.
- Coyote safety tips:
- Never feed coyotes — it's illegal in Los Angeles and teaches them to associate people with food.
- Keep pets leashed and supervised, especially small dogs and cats, which coyotes may view as prey.
- If you encounter a coyote, make yourself look big, make loud noises, and maintain eye contact while backing away slowly — never run.
- Secure trash cans and remove fallen fruit from yards, which can attract coyotes looking for an easy meal.
- Keep yards well-lit and trim back dense vegetation where coyotes could hide.
