Cassie325 ... If the walls are 6 feet high, I would say yes to that question. Really, I have seen them jump onto the top of wall that is only 5 or 6 INCHES wide and then walk that wall looking for prey.
Check out this link which was given to the residents of the community in which I had lived in AZ. You will note that it says "
Coyotes can easily leap an 8 foot fence or wall. They have been spotted climbing over a 14 foot cyclone fence."

As I noted, they are incredible athletes and always on the prowl. Some people foolishly leave out food for wildlife and coyotes quickly learn to remain in that area for the free handout. Someday I must tell you how my Murphy saved my neighbor's Yorkshire Terrier from being the blue plate special.
