Where The Coyotes Maul

Newsflash: just down the street from my mother's house, a small puppy was mauled and was severly injured, and died shortly after the owner took it to the veterinarian. The nature of the injuries suggested that a wild coyote did it. Coyotes have appeared in the suburban Chicagoland area in the past few years, and I've seen them wandering around the streets. The village has tried to capture or kill them without success.

It is recommended that dogs be kept on a short leash-and nowadays, most people seem to have small dogs as opposed to big ones. Coyotes eat small animals, and most dogs I've seen are as small as cats.

What a coyote looks like.
