Do you eat them?
I have a real problem with them here in Westchester. The other night there was probably 10 on my lawn howling. Then the next evening after making chicken soup I put a chicken carcass out on my porch with the intent of tossing it in the woods after dinner. So after eating I opened the door and there was a massive coyote 1' away from me on my porch. He didn't attack, but he didn't budge either, he bristled his back and bared his teeth at me. I needed a change of undies after that!
