I've lived in this same township for most of life and saw my first coyote last night. I called the police department and the person I talked to said they have been around for a number of years, but that their numbers have been growing the last eight years or so.
This is the first coyote that I've seen I was stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas. The little buggers were all over the place out there. I remember when we would go out to the field and groups of them would be running around our bivouac area looking for scraps of food. You could hear them scurrying around and making howling and yelping noises. To be honest it was a little unnerving when you are out in the middle of the night by yourself pulling guard duty along your platoon's perimeter. We had blanks, but I always carried boot knife when we went out on field training exercises.
