    I’ve been around coyotes my entire life and usually when you see them, they’re already high-tailing the other direction. Either you have some super-tame coyotes or those weren’t coyotes.

      more than 1 will follow you because they know humans are dumb enough to feed them.

      more than 3 and you’re the meal.

        There’s a lot of animals to be more afraid of than coyotes and wolves. I think between them there’s been maybe 4 fatalities in the last century. The last thing I would get in front of is a moose cow with a calf, that’s a good way to find Valhalla.

          yes. I’m terrified of polar bears, but fortunately I live in an area where coyotes outnumber polar bears 1500 to 0.
