Cape Lejeune Marine Corps Base on the North Carolina coast has issued a safety alert after multiple people reported being attacked at the military facility by coyotes.

At least four attacks have occurred recently on the eastern side of the base, near the Wallace Creek area, officials said in a Facebook post.

Investigators did not give details of the injuries, but noted all victims “were running after dark in the vicinity.”

The latest attack occurred at 4 a.m. Sept. 23. All the victims reported being near offices of the II Marine Expeditionary Force Information Group Command when attacked, officials said.

“Until further notice, please do not run in this area after dark until the animal can be removed,” the base said, adding people on base should “report any human encounters with coyotes.”

So what’s the problem here? Send out a marine with a rifle and a night scope. Problem solved.

Start shooting them again. They’ll get their fear back.

Another thing to thank environmentalists and animal rights nuts for.

Coyotes, not ‘Cougars’. So don’t purposely let yourself get caught.

Oh, dear. The county wildlife officer was just telling our science class today that coyotes aren’t aggressive.

Shooting coyotes at night with a night scope is not as easy as it sounds.

In open areas like Texas and the plains states not so hard.

On the East Coast the coyote uses the brush to hide while he checks out the area and usually sees the hunter before the hunter sees him.

It is fun, but not something with immediate results.

Trapping is much more successful when done by an expert.

Smart. Also one could wire that area off and/or have a squad or men needed for the size of the perimeter armed to kill. Anyone know if they are rabid?

They got to shoot that thing and get it in to check if it is rabid.

I know democrats are rabid, so it shouldnt be that hard to check.

He’s wrong. Eastern coyote’s are bigger and more aggressive than western coyote’s. They are part red wolf. We have some here that are as big as a German shepherd.

Have them do their running or jogging armed!!!! It’s a Federal reservation so they can tell Newsom to get screwed. If he objects, mail the dead coyotes to his mansion.
