You are not missing anything.

There was ONE dog that got snatched by a coyote and that was after midnight and the little dog was out in the yard without a leash.

Hopefully, there will be no coyote trapping - especially inside a wildlife preserve. Thanks to all who called VCDD and commented about the idiocy of trapping inside a wildlife preserve.

Personal responsibility and common sense are the best choices.
