June 2010: It's Pup Season for Coyotes! Be aware!

Coyotes are now raising their pups and can be more territorial as they guard their mates, dens, pups, and food sources. As the days become longer and people and their pets spend more time outdoors, the possibility of a coyote interaction increases. Find out how you can be safe and also enjoy seeing coyotes in the community.
