We lived in the high hills above Tucson for 8 years...when we first moved there in 1978, my Company would pay for the transportation of pets (we were building a new manufacturing and development facility)..I was in charge of Employee Expense Accounting..we would pay from $400 to $1200 to move a pet. People would move in and let their pets out, never to be seen again.
The coyotes would get them! I figure that we spent thousands of dollars delivering dinner to the coyotes in Tucson's high desert. They are here in the Villages..when you hear yipping at night, it means they have made a kill.
Keep your pets close but don't fear coyotes unnecessarily. They are EXCELLENT "atheletes"!
