The other day, my wife woke early, went on the porch, and saw a coyote about 300 feet from the house, lazily walking about, and it soon disappeared into the woods. She wasn't sure what it was, but she managed to get a photo, and after I examined it, I could tell it was definitely a coyote.
A neighbor found a photo of what they described as a pregnant coyote on a game camara. It was in their yard, and their property is close to where I live. The coyote my wife saw wasn't pregnant, so there's at least two, but since I hear them hunting at night, there is a small pack, which now seems to be becoming more bold.
We'll watch closely, and look for signs of them predating on the chickens. Small dogs will have to be kept close, and with the neighborhood now alerted, coyotes that venture close will find their boldness will be a mistake.
