I have received several calls over the past week about a coyote in and around Cunningham Park. Today was the first day I was able to put eyes on it. It appears to be an older coyote and is often seen just lying in the sun. The video illustrates what I always try to explain to people regarding coyote behavior. While I am inside my truck just looking at the coyote it lays there looking back at me assessing the threat. It does not feel threatened so it stays there. When I roll down the window and yell it gets up and moves on as it should. When I stop yelling and again just sit in my truck, it lays back down and continues to watch me. If you see a coyote, you should always harass it until it leaves. If you are inside your house, looking out a window and bang on the window it does not perceive you as a threat. You need to open the window or a door yell , wave your arms , throw things , or even use a hose until it leaves the area. if everyone harasses coyotes every time they see one then we can all coexist peacefully.
Merry Christmas
Santa stopped by the Milton Animal Shelter! All the animals enjoyed their gifts, and hope to receive the best gift of all in the coming year: a new home! Best wishes for everyone who supports us all year long. Whatever you celebrate, we hope you're having a bright and peaceful day.
