For an intruder??? I don't think the courts would allow that

They are here to stay.

Although they don't prey on humans, there have been occasions when they attack humans, so don't be complacent if you encounter one. The fact is that no urban area where coyotes have intruded has ever been able to eliminate them. There have been coyotes in the woods adjacent Tampa International Airport for decades. They have recently been videotaped in residential areas of St. Petersburg during daylight hours. The Villages will not be an exception. Act accordingly, as outlined above, in order to protect your pets.

We have them in Central NY as well---I hear them but haven't seen any. We have a few bobcats, but the main predators are foxes.

Ya'll know that howl that coyotes make?? That is me when I log back on and see this thread still going strong.. Come on people , we need to chill on the coyote and concentrate on the killer rats that will overrun The Villages once the coyotes are all gone.. And if you are putting out poison to kill the coyotes , please know you are killing birds, squirrels, owls, etc and hopefully NOT some unsuspecting wandering lost dog or cat.

I do not know anybody who would put out poison. Angie apparently does.

It's called a secondary kill...... " For crying out loud. What did you think you were doing moving to Florida, next to a national forest??? We have nature here! For most of us, it's why we moved here. Shame on you trying to kill it! As to the missing pets and the torn lanai.... Yes, I've seen those posts. Yes I believe those pets are missing and something broke through that lanai. We don't know anything else about what happened to those pets or what broke into the lanai. I know I have heard that people in my hood are putting out tainted meat to kill the coyotes. Do you think the coyotes are the only animal that is eating it? Don't you suppose the cats and dogs as well as everything else would get into it? These posts are causing more problems than they are helping! Use your head people..... It's the circle of life. The coyotes and snakes eat the rats! Pardon the pun... but .... Pick your poison! And yes... I have two small dogs. I keep them on a short leash.

Indoor cats do require a litter box that has to be cleaned daily. Outdoor cats trespass on neighbors' properties, damage flowerbeds, get into garbage and may kill birds and small animals.*
Re: litter boxes that need to be cleaned daily....not any more....now they have an automatic box called a cat genie...works like a charm! |
