A few weeks ago I discovered a coyote den with pups. I live in a suburban neighborhood and have never seen coyotes before. It seems the people who live there don't know of don't care that they have coyotes living in their yard. I was told that this coyote family will leave by mid-May. Does anyone know if that is true? I have seen an adult coyote several evenings on my street. We have seen at least 3 pups at the den site. I just wonder if there will now always be coyotes in the neighborhood. I'm thinking of getting a Great Pyr to protect my chickens and dogs. Thanks for any info!
