Coyote Reports
In Oct 2015 the public began reporting coyote sightings (an observation at a distance with no interaction) and encounters (an interaction at close range) to our website. The data provided by these “citizen scientists” has been extremely helpful to us, and the figures below summarize reports received from 2015-17 (data collection is ongoing). The increasing number of reports through time does not necessarily reflect a growing coyote population, but rather an increased awareness of our website.
