Coyotes

Research has proven that killing coyotes does not fix the problem that humans have caused. Why are we not listening to professionals in this field, and instead heading to the loud voices of a few? If this was a medical issue with a person would you not listen to medical professionals?
Killing animals does not work. You need to crack down on inappropriate human behaviour. We need to learn to share our spaces with our wild neighbours.

They did not create this situation their homes and food source were violently destroyed they deserve to be Ina. Sanctuary or helped in some way

This is a vital error to kill the coyotes. They did not create this situation. Humans did! Citizens and govt need to learn to safely share the space. If this is the solution to problems we are in deep trouble. Other options like education, lighting, noise deterents, walking dogs on leash at safe times and paying attention, stop destroying their habitats etc. Im disgusted in hesring this news.

Many dog owners in this community feel ENTITLED to have their dogs off-leash anywhere, especially small dog owners.
Rather than change their behaviour, they want to slaughter innocent wild animals because they have lost their home in Ontario place and are now fighting for territory and survival.
As a responsible dog owner who has lived in this area for 8+ years, I’m used to seeing coyotes. They have never bothered me or my dog.
I acknowledge that since the construction in Ontario place started in summer 2025, there has been more frequent sightings and interactions, but people need to learn to live with them and modify our own behaviour to be able to live harmoniously.
