Moment coyote mauls Arizona toddler before attacking ANOTHER child
Shocking home security footage captured the moment an Arizona toddler was set upon by a bloodthirsty coyote, before it later attacked another child half a mile away.

Just another reason to shoot every one you encounter.

Some of the younger folks here might not believe it, but there were no coyotes in Tennessee, none, not really that long ago.
Invasive species, terminate at will.
It was probably a labrador misidentified as a coyote.

Lucky those kids weren't seriously hurt. Best coyote is a dead coyote. Kill them all.

Coyotes and armadillos. Two species I wish had never moved in.

Just curious....but WTF does it matter how much the home costs, how many bedrooms it has, or what the mom does for a living?
Does the mom, or whomever wrote that story, really think that yote (bear, cougar, wolf, lion, or anything else) gives a chit?
Living in a x million dollar home does not take you off the food chain!!

Saw my first yote in 1986, very soon after that they seemed to be everywhere.

Absolutely right. Thank goodness I don't have them on my place (or in suburban Nashville) yet.

I was going to ask when people first started seeing them. The 70s? When we bought our place in Humphreys County in '87, place was already loaded with them.

In Tennessee I saw my first coyote around 82-85, I was hunting with Mike Belt and had one come out while deer hunting. In Kentucky, I was deer hunting on one of the farms and had one cross the cut field. I did not shoot either. The one in Tn was such a surprise I let him walk, and the one in KY, I had 2 family members on tree stands in the woods behind the coyote so I didn't want to take a chance.

In the 70's and 80's we had well over 100 muscovy and mallard ducks on the creek where we lived. In the late 80's we sold most of them. Fast forward to 2022. I raised a dozen to maturity. They lasted less than 10 days on the same creek. When we move back in, I'm gonna declare war on yotes. I'll bait them in with a live chicken and smoke their tail.
Im far eastern middle tn. West tn had them a few years sooner.
I'll add hogs. The riff raff that hunts them from the road with thermals comes with them.
Why hate coyotes? I’ve raised them for years and let my kids be around them. It must have been a coyote mix. It all depends on how they were raised. Small dogs have more bite encounters than they do. Most aggressive coyotes aren’t full blooded and people assume because they look alike they are the same. 
Lived in Vicksburg MS from 80-87. We'd cross the river to LA to fish & would see lots of coyotes & armidillos, but had none on MS side. One summer during that period the river just about went dry, barges stuck all up & down it. That fall while deer hunting on MS side is when I first saw coyotes & armidillos east of river. Truly believe they crossed it during drought.
