Hoomin note: Sara lived in San Diego and there were a lot of pets killed
by coyotes. One day she looked out the window and three coyotes were
coming into the yard. She yelled to her husband to get the dogs in and
then watched in horror as Sashi shook one coyote like a rat and left it
dead and drove the other two off.

I try to be understanding of all wildlife's place in the ecology, and I
do understand about wild creatures being forced into urban areas by loss
of habitat, but even so I have little love for coyotes. They do far too
much damage to small animals (including domestic cats) and too few
natural enemies.
