Davidson Obituaries
Tuesday, July 25, 2017Coyotes have since been reported — besides in Balboa Terrace — in Stern Grove, Golden Gate Park, Glen Canyon Park, Bernal Heights, St. Francis Wood and Miraloma Park; at Lake Merced; and on Mount Davidson and the Olympic Club golf course.Fox, who started a “Be Coyote Aware” program that teaches techniques for avoiding conflicts with the animals, said it is only natural for coyotes to repopulate territory they formerly inhabited.“If we leave them alone, they will define their territories and protect their territories from other coyotes,” Fox said. “They will not overpopulate their territory.”Many San Franciscans support the city’s coexistence program, even if pets occasionally get killed. Residents in Bernal Heights have long celebrated what they consider their coyote, a healthy denizen of Bernal Heights Park that has been known to play with local dogs. A series of photographs of the coyote was recently published in Bernalwood, the community online newspaper.“So amazing!” the caption reads. “Just remember: As much as we love the Bernal Coyote, it’s up to us to help keep her safe. Do not love her too much. Respect her space, and do not feed her.”“Most people know they just need to be careful,” said Dan De Vries, 68, a resident of Merced Heights who has gone door to door in San Francisco preaching “Be Coyote Aware” techniques. “My impression is that people aren't all that afraid. Some think it’s kind of neat to have coyotes in the neighborhood.”Still, some people want the newcomers gone. “The coyotes have an unlimited food supply and no known predators. They stalk animals and stalk people,” said Carol Meschter, 65, a retired Los Altos veterinarian who believes federal trappers should be called in to remove the animals from San Francisco and other Bay Area cities. “It's a pretty dangerous situation, I think. Just because a child hasn't been killed yet doesn’t mean that it’s a safe situation.”Coyotes are not normally aggressive to humans or dogs, Fox said, but they will protect their dens from intruders during the pup-rearing season, which lasts from April through August. Just one fatal attack on a human has been documented in the United States. The 1981 case occurred in Glendale (Los Angeles County), when a 3-year-old girl was dragged away from her house before her father could rescue her. Animal control officers are patrolling Aptos Avenue, where Sunday’s coyote attack occurred, and the surrounding area this week. Another dog was killed on the same street last year, and there have been several other encounters, including fatal maulings of two other dogs in the past few years. The coyotes apparently came from nearby Stern Grove. Aggressive coyotes were also reported in the Presidio in June.“We need to recognize that coyotes are here to stay,” Fox said. “It’s horrible when something like this happens. As the guardian of a 12-pound mutt, I feel it is my responsibility to make sure he is safe when he is outside. So when I recreate in areas where there are coyotes, I am very mindful, and I keep him on a leash.”Peter Fimrite is a San Francisco Chronicle staff writer. Email: pfimrite@sfchronicle.com.
