WEST SEATTLE COYOTES: North Delridge sightings

From Aubbie in North Delridge:

Spotted this coyote just outside someone’s backyard at the intersection of SW Hudson, Puget Blvd SW, and 23rd Ave SW just now (10:45 am). Neighbors should get small pets inside.

Consulting our email for any unpublished recent sightings, we note that Darrick saw a coyote in the same area last Monday; the photo was too distant to tell if it was the same one. If you’re not already well-versed in coexisting with coyotes, you’ll want to read this.

    That is a very handsome/healthy looking Coyote.

    That’s a handsome looking critter.  Good thing I keep my kitty cat indoors.

    My husband saw one on his way to work a couple of weeks ago in the school yard this was at 1:30am and then the next evening the same one??? was in our backyard.     We live near Shorewood School.

    Seattle University & Woodlawn Park Zoo are studying predatory animals in urban environments. Help them out and tag these sightings herehttps://carnivorespotter.org/

    My dog growled and lunged towards a hedge at 36th & Orchard on a walk Thursday afternoon, .  She’s very keen on bunnies but does not typically growl–imagine my shock when a good size coyote popped out of the hedge–luckily trotting away from us.  Too fast for a  photo op.
