We are lousy with them here in the Atlanta suburbs. One took a run at our Chihuahua as we were walking her on the leash one night. I had to pick her up while the fiancee’ brandished a maglight at it. We went out on the deck about 20 minutes later and tried to call it up with our dying rabbit call. We could hear it moving around behind the woodpile but could not get a shot at it. Wed I was driving down the main drag heading for the PO and there was a coyote standing on the curb waiting to try to cross the street. They are very bold.

I hope in future that you AND your fiance "carry" (either open or concealed as you prefer) on your walks, not just for coyotes. Too many stories of domestic canines let "run loose" and attacking.

wow..here in NE-CT we hear them in packs, howling. Very rarely see them though, but they have hundreds of acres to roam in-we live in “The Last Green Valley” in CT. I would imagine the Atlanta suburbs are not as wooded as here.

I wish I could hear you do a dying rabbit call...I didn’t know they had one!
