Common Coyote Problems
With exceptional senses of smell and sight, coyotes hunt in packs and prefer grassy areas where there is a plethora of prey animals like rabbits, squirrels, rodents, and reptiles. Coyotes have even been known to take down deer or cattle. A few common coyote problems Cleveland residents face include:
- Livestock destruction, which affects the agricultural industry
- Domestic pet attacks
- Like all wild animals, coyotes are disease and parasite carriers (like rabies)
- Attacks on humans are quite rare and do not usually result in serious injury
Keeping Coyotes Out
- Fencing can be beneficial but coyotes are talented at getting over and under fences, so extra precautions should be considered.
- Using animals like guard dogs, donkeys, or llamas as livestock protectors can be effective.
- Do not leave domestic or livestock animals out at night.
