Please sight your source for this statement.

Why need a “source”? Its common sense. Their territory is being taken away and they still live there and need to survive. You would get aggressive and nasty if you were hungry too

It's all the circle of life . Fair game if outside. And get your pets chipped!!!

Pure conjecture. From what I’ve read, coyotes associate residential areas with a food source, and can thrive.

Bottom line, people complain about over-development and the effects it has on wildlife, yet people move here. I guess The Villages should stop building once YOU move in.

I'm sorry for whoever has to be around someone mean spirited enough to have felt it necessary to post that to a person saddened by the loss of their pet. With nothing nice to say it would have been better to say nothing at all. A lesson I guess you were never taught.

Really? I had to have one taken away and put in the Ocala National Forest because he became aggressive to both myself and my dogs. It’s a fallacy that the keel over when scared. This one was definitely aggressive

Seriously? He was aggressive because he, or she, was in a deadly situation from your dogs. 'Possums are wonderful animals, and the don't "keel overt when scared" you are confusing them with Fainting Goats. 'Possums will play "possum" when scared, but dogs mean a life and death situation for them.

I'm so sorry about your cat. My cat was killed Jan 21 last year by a coyote, when I lived in Houston, so I understand the pain.

While walking to the mail box this AM , saw a cat sitting on the left side of the entrance of the Sterlling Heights Rec. center

I heard the coyotes the other night. Probably on Loblolly or Longleaf golf course.

Black cat seen by Bonifay's Pensacola Golf Course. Last seen yesterday.

Very Mean and self-centered comment. I suppose you don't like lost bird dogs either.

Construction has likely disturbed their habitat. Just wait a few years.

We have cats who detect low blood sugar and sense weather changes. Our front door does not have a screened entry yet - on order. Until then our kittens are fast and smart, so we knash teeth every time someone uses the front door. I feel for the caring pet parents who accidentally lose a pet.

Have you tried a live trap with cat food? Be ready to release some strange critters though.

Wasn't there a drone pet finding service here at one time?

More than 80% of Florida is undeveloped. Plenty of room for wildlife.

I thoroughly agree. I think you misunderstood my post.

With all the additional water features and natural areas south of 44 replacing pasture land, I suspect many forms of wildlife has increased.
