After a week of researching coyotes, I made an infographic to summarize what I learned about the challenges they face and possible ways humans can reduce conflict. One thing this project changed for me: coexistence feels much more possible than I used to think. #60animals

After researching coyotes this week, I’ve started to realize how important prevention and education are. Managing conflict seems more effective when communities focus on understanding behavior before turning to harmful solutions. #60animals

The Humane Society’s coyote coexistence plan emphasizes education, prevention, and humane management strategies before lethal control is considered. Effective wildlife management depends on informed communities and long-term planning. humaneworld.org/sites/default/… #60animals

This connects so much with what I learned while researching coyotes this week. Coexistence seems much more possiblewhen people understand animal behavior and make small changes to help wildlife stay wild. #60animals

WildlifeNYC helps New Yorkers learn how to coexist safely with urban wildlife, including coyotes. Their guidance reminds people not to feed coyotes, to keep distance, and to help wildlife stay wild. nyc.gov/site/wildlifen… #60animals #Coyotes #UrbanWildlife

One thing I learned this week is that reducing conflict with coyotes is not just about wildlife—it’s also about people learning and working together. Community education may be one of the most important tools for coexistence. irvinepd.gov/coyote-informa… #60animals #Coyotes

Can learning about coyote behavior reduce conflict? Research suggests community education and understanding wildlife behavior may help people and coyotes coexist more successfully. Sometimes better solutions start with better understanding. predatordefense.org/docs/coyotes_c… #60animals

Roads can make survival harder for coyotes, but some solutions already exist. Projects like the Coyote Valley wildlife crossing in California are designed to help animals move safely and reconnect habitats. openspacetrust.org/post-news/coyo… #60animals #Coyotes

I didn’t know this before, but experts sometimes recommend “hazing” coyotes to keep them wild and avoid conflict. Making loud noises or appearing bigger can help reinforce their natural fear of humans. Coexistence takes effort. #60animals #Coyotes projectcoyote.org/act/learning-h…

Can people and coyotes coexist? Research suggests reducing conflict may depend on community education and understanding coyote behavior, not just fear or removal. Learning how coyotes live might be part of the solution. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12… #60animals

Small actions can make a big difference in reducing human-coyote conflict. Securing trash, bringing pet food inside, and supervising pets are simple ways to help coyotes stay wild and avoid unnecessary encounters. #60animals #Coyotes

I didn’t realize how much everyday things like trash or pet food could shape coyote behavior. Reading more from @CaliforniaDFW made me realize coexistence is not just about coyotes—it also depends on what humans do. #60animals #Coyotes

@SGVCOG @ProjectCoyote @DiscoverArcadia @CityofIrwindale @sgvhumaneaco @PasadenaHumane It is important to identify potential attractants & understand how a coyote might access them. Removing access to attractants like trash, bird feeders & pet food is as important as removal. How a coyote can gain access can be managed. wildlife.ca.gov/Keep-Me-Wild/C… #LetstalkCoyotes

One thing I learned from @CaliforniaDFW: small actions can reduce human-coyote conflict. Securing trash, keeping pets close, and never feeding wildlife may help coyotes stay wild and avoid unnecessary encounters. #60animals #Coyotes

While researching coyotes, I found that California Department of Fish and Wildlife (@CaliforniaDFW) has a lot of practical information about living with coyotes safely. I like that they focus on prevention and coexistence instead of fear. wildlife.ca.gov #60animals

Before researching coyotes, I honestly assumed they were dangerous to people. Learning that most conflicts are preventable really changed how I think about them. Understanding behavior seems more helpful than fear. #60animals #Coyotes

One thing I like about @ProjectCoyote is their focus on coexistence. Their resources explain simple ways to reduce human-coyote conflict, such as securing trash and not feeding wildlife. Sometimes understanding behavior works better than fear. #60animals

While researching coyotes, I came across @ProjectCoyote, an organization focused on wildlife coexistence and humane solutions to human-coyote conflict. I like how much they emphasize understanding animal behavior instead of fear. projectcoyote.org #60animals #Coyotes

Coyotes adapt quickly, but city life changes them too. Research suggests urban coyotes rely more on human-related food sources, reshaping how they survive. Sometimes adaptation happens because they have no choice. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC75… #60animals #Coyotes

Fewer coyotes killed by cars sounds like good news, right? Surprisingly, new California research suggests it may reflect declining coyote populations instead. Human development affects wildlife more than we realize. ucdavis.edu/climate/news/c… #60animals #Coyotes

Coyotes aren’t just moving into cities—cities are changing coyotes. A new LA study found urbanization shapes how coyotes move, where they roam, and how they survive. Adaptation may help them survive, but it also comes with costs. vcresearch.berkeley.edu/news/how-urban… #60animals #Coyotes

Sometimes coyote conflict starts with us. Research suggests repeated feeding or easy food sources can make coyotes less fearful of humans over time. Understanding behavior may matter more than fear alone. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC69… #60animals #Coyotes

When people think of coyote conflict, many imagine attacks on humans. But research suggests most conflicts actually involve pets, especially cats and small dogs. In most cases, coyotes are harmless to humans🐺. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… #60animals #Coyotes
