There was an incident a few years ago not far from here where a child
was "stalked" by a coyote. I don't think the child was harmed, but it
was a close call. They later determined the coyote had worms or
something, and was starving.
We hear them all the time outside our house. Sometimes from multiple
directions.

I have never successfully hit a coyote. Shot at a few but they always
see me long before I see them it seems.
Used to be a $50 bounty on them in Oregon when I was a kid, so I had
an incentive.
Growing up in a very rural area that was serenated by what sounded
like dozens of coyotes many nights (they say a few can sound like a
whole bunch) I never heard of a single incident of a coyote harming a
human. I am sure they would snack on a kid that out alone but I
never heard of it happening.
So I smile when I hear people being afraid of coyotes.
