A Woodland Hills pet owner got more than she bargained for early Friday morning when a coyote breezed through the dog door and unnerved her cat.
The Department of Fish and Wildlife estimates that there are 250,000 to 750,000 coyotes statewide, though it’s unclear how many might be roaming in Los Angeles County.
Violent encounters between coyotes and humans are extremely rare, according to wildlife experts. However, interactions with coyotes are on the rise as housing and development continue to encroach on their natural habitat., according to the county Department of Public Health. About half of these occurred in communities east of downtown.
Most coyote attacks are related to food or when the animal draws near pets or livestock, according to the state Department of Fish and Wildlife. For this reason, wildlife officials advise residents never to feed coyotes and to secure trash canisters near their home. In the event that someone encounters a coyote, people try to keep a safe distance. They can also make noise, such as loudly clapping hands or yelling, to scare off the animal.
