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.
