Apparently the local authorities are saying they are not willing to step in and trap them.
We live in Florida and many of us a long time prior to coming to TV but if a wild creature comes in numbers and begins to wreck havoc, something is done and we don't turn a blind eye. I'm not sure this is the case here but I can say that one night while we were out walking, something that sounded like a little dog was screaming for his life in the open field where there are aerial lines in Alhambra. Was this an isolated event? What do we need to do?

There is no containment and will be no containment. You absolutely do need to never turn your back. I'm going to post some very upsetting videos for education on the subject of children and coyotes.
Children bitten by coyotes always get rabies shots. I apologize for the graphic nature of these stories, but it is no time to avert our eyes from the truth.
