Bear, cougar and now a coyote in Magnolia

Posted by Geeky Swedes on November 24th, 2009

The bear swam to Ballard. The cougar got caught in Discovery Park. And now a coyote is making various appearances in Magnolia. Our sister site, MagnoliaVoice, is posting photos from neighbors, like this one:

“It is good sized, appears healthy and doesn’t appear to be the least bit skittish about humans in its immediate vicinity,” explains a neighbor.

    Coyotes get a bad rap for eating the occasional pet, but they mostly eat critters we don't want--rats and mice, for example. They're everywhere in cities--even in Chicago, there's 3000 of them--are they're credited with keeping vermin populations low.

    Very true. Coyotes are urban beasts. Not sure what the surprise is, as I have seen many in Ballard over the years. Los Angeles also has a substantial population.
