SAN FRANCISCO Dogs outnumber children here, making already assertive dog owners an even more formidable political force.
But the emergence in recent years of coyotes in the citys parks, and sometimes in its expensive backyards and picturesque streets, has raised doubts about whether that founding legacy can survive. Will the two animal worlds the domesticated and the wild be able to coexist? Might they even, as many in this liberal city hope, ultimately complement each other?
Taking no chances, city officials recently cordoned off trails and barricaded a restroom in an area of Golden Gate Park where reports of coyotes following dog owners and approaching unleashed dogs have been rising

San Francisco is a homosexual haven.
They have gained political power because they have time and money to spend on themselves, whereas normal people pour themselves in to raising families.
In this case, the “gay” and self-indulgent lifestyle seems to have come back to bite them, literally.
Or the coyotes will win.
Coyotes are a major carrier of rabies and they should be eradicated as quiuckly as possible.
If you have a problem with coyotes I highly recommend a black lab. My own “rolls” coyotes for fun and they tend to stay away. She looks like a torpedo running through the tall grass when she goes after them and they can’t see her in the night (she knows this.

Earthquake, fire and brimstone... something, eh?
LOL! I'd love to watch that.
Labs are good for coyotes but for wolves you need a couple of these:
A couple of decades ago, one of our single younger relatives lived in a townhouse in Bend, Oregone with some fellow co workers.
Every afternoon after work, they tried to relax in their hot tub with a local micro beer. A neighbor would let her vile French Poodle out to bark at them and anything that was alive while doing her business.
One afternoon/evening right at sunset, after FiFi had been set out, a large coyote came up and grabbed FiFi by the neck and shook FiFi. Then, Wilie trotted off with his fresh French dinner.
As Wilie was leaving with FiFi doing her final yapping, FiFi's owner came out of her house and saw what was happening and asked her neighbors for help.
They held their Deschuttes micro beer bottles up and toasted Wilie.
The neighbor moved out shortly after that terrible event for her and FiFi. Peace and quiet with the reassuring howls of Wilie and his brothers was the norm in that neighborhood, from then on.
I lived in the middle of Houston and we have coyotes living right here. They travel up and down a bayou and venture 2 or 3 miles from that bayou into densely populated neighborhoods during the day and certainly at night. Small dogs and cats disappear often. I saw one at 1pm closer to The Galleria than he was to Buffalo Bayou. I had heard they were here but that still shocked me.
That’s why they didn’t want the IOWA. Afraid someone would turn those nine 16”ers around and improve the world.
I’ve seen ranchers here in Central Texas keep packs of large guard dogs within their property. That keeps everyone honest, especially coyotes and hogs.
I live about a mile from the Richmond, VA city limits. One of my cats disappeared about a month ago. Last week, I heard of two other cats killed nearby, and they found some remains. One of the pet owners just hired a trapper.
We were driving on a very rural dirt road in west central Texas and saw a flock of sheep. They were being guarded by 2 of the most magnificent huge white dogs. Can’t remember the breed right now but I would not have gotten out of the car even to fix a flat near those dogs. :D
Dogs are just substitute children from homosexuals and lesbians.
If you had put it that way, they might have wanted it.
Will the trapper be using a dead cat for bait?
Here’s a novel idea. Keep all the stinking pooping and peeing mutts out of the park. People are such slobs with pet “Froofry” crapping/peeing along the trail or on someone else’s property.
