The City of Toronto issues a list of suggestions regarding the steps one should take if a chance meeting with a coywolf occurs. Rather than alarming citizens, they are told to make themselves as large as possible, raising their arms above their heads, shouting and stamping their feet to frighten off the coywolf. They do include however, suggestion to not take your eye off the coyote/coywolf, never turn your back on one, and to back away, rather than run away.
Coywolves are here to stay. They are part of the fabric of wildlife in Toronto and other parts of the province. I like the idea of having one of the finest predators here, keeping the numbers of rodents and rabbits in check.They deserve respect and admiration.
