Coyotes in urban environments are more often than not perceived negatively and associated with fear. Although they are carnivores, they are opportunistic and will scavenge to ensure sufficient food intake. 

Left alone, they do not pose a threat to people with known thriving coyote populations living across residential suburbs and urban greenways. 

The concern comes when individuals come in conflict with people or pets as a result of habituation (loss of fear), resource provision (garbage, fruit trees, harbourage, free-roaming pets), use of thoroughfares/wildlife routes, and habitat encroachment/loss. 

Coyotes are either attracted to or forced into areas considered to be out of bounds by humans.

Understanding coyote behaviour is what our team specializes in, which ensures we can address the root cause and provide sustainable solutions ranging from direct management to long term deterrence and collaborative hazing. 

Denning season during the Spring is when coyotes will be the most active in search of food and protecting their pups which can result in increased human-coyote conflict.

Human-coyote conflict is understandably stressful, it doesn't have to be. Give our team a call for a hands on custom approach to your situation. We know how to help.
