Coyote Presence Threatens Small Pets
March 15, 2013 Wildlife experts are warning people in the Midwest to be aware that this is the time of year when female coyotes begin to care for their pups in dens they have built. Some of these den areas maybe relatively close to walking areas and people are being advised to not let their small pets wander off of their leashes for fear they may encounter a protective coyote mother which may feel threatened.
