I can't imagine being attacked by a coyote. They are naturally
fearful of me, with good reason. Dogs too.
Excepting Chihuahuas. Tiny dogs are stupid. I have one.
Instead of "booking" it into the garage, you should have just
growled at it as you approached it. Make a fist too.
Would have sent it away with its tail tucked.
Bears are another story.

Dog packs are dangerous but they're more interested in deer than

Yep.
OTOH, a single coyote - all 35 pounds of him - isn't much.
Especially if you're bundled in winter clothes.
Everyone has their own way of dealing with these kind of
incidents. My inclination would be to scare it off
immediately, since I don't want it attacking my back.
You have to let any canine know who's boss.
What's scarier is being attacked by a skunk. They have poor
eyesight and have come right at me at night time.
That's when I beat feet.


There's no shortage of news stories about packs of feral dogs attacking
humans or the pets of humans.

Gosh, I've not seen these stories. Perhaps you could direct us to some sites? Humans
attacked by feral dog packs along the Shenandoah River? Please?

Google is your friend. Perhaps you can find some examples of attacks by
black dogs on white peeples. :)



T'weren't me saying there's "...no shortage of news stories about packs of feral dogs
attacking humans or the pets of humans." It appears there is. Better make something
up to justify your 'carrying' when out there with the rest of your badass bunch
shooting at tree stumps.

Easy to find. Perhaps your buddy Tim can help with your inability to
google.

The following search of Google for feral dog attacks in Virginia

There was an incident in Virginia Beach where a stray dog killed a
family pet, and there was a stray dog attack at a zoo in Jackson,
Mississippi. Other than that, nada. It would appear that big pussy
Harry just likes to open carry.

Cite 10 incidents. That should substantiate your claim. Otherwise you're
just a smelly old gas bag.

Here's an interesting YouTube video of a coyote stalking a human. It
might make you rethink your strategy.

Good vid. No, it doesn't make me rethink. That guy was
playing around with it. He didn't want to give it a good kick.
Or maybe he wasn't capable of kicking. But he sure wasn't
afraid of it. He knew not to offer his back.



You are a trip. One one hand you claim that a coyote is naturally
fearful of humans and won't go after one anyway and then, (above) you
say "my inclination would be to scare if off immediately, since I don't
want it attacking my back." So which is it? Will it attack or not?

A coyote is not a dog. Any wild animal that can easily take down and
kill a deer deserves some respect. It's a lot smarter to avoid a
confrontation than to further encourage and add to it's experience in
dealing with humans. The increasing frequency of human contact is what
is causing them to lose their fear in the first place.

Can't say I admire your bravery. It's more like stupidity.






You nailed it.

I chuckled when I read this.

We have a dog named "Fudge". Good sized mutt that my wife
rescued as a 1 year old pup from an abusive owner years ago.

Fudge is an awesome dog and is more affectionate to those he knows than
our other goofy black lab, "Sam Adams".

But God help any stranger who encounters Fudge in the house or outside
in the fenced-in area we made for him. You could throw all the rocks at
him you want, try to kick him, make fists at him and yell at him until
you're hoarse but he's still going to try to get you.
Doesn't like strangers at all, especially guys. I had to rescue a
landscaper who Fudge cornered once. The guy was yelling his head off at
him but the only thing that saved him was a five foot high aluminum pool
fence that was slowing Fudge down. He was trying to bite his way
through the fence to get to the guy.

Fudge would probably be no match for a wild coyote though.



I think I would dispute your last comment.

Ah, you've met Fudge. :-)

I don't know. A dog's instinct is to protect his territory. A coyote's
instinct is to kill to eat. It would be a messy fight though. Fudge is
an incredibly athletic and strong dog.
