Too many coyotes.
They need to be culled.
One of those medium Coyote bad actors ventured inside my fence line in Arkansas. My Great Pyrenees (126 lb.) male livestock protection dog dispatched him without delay. It was amazing to watch my Great Pyrenees in a full gallop catch him by the hind quarters disabling him then to the neck for the end of the story.
The vermin and snakes they kill are more of a danger to you than a coyote. They live in highly urban areas without being seen for the most part. Coyotes attacks are extremely rare.
They used to hang them on barbed wire fences in western Oklahoma.
Driving along you could see a dozen or more. Dead, of course.
