Tips that can be found with an article in the Broomfield Enterprise on how to avoid becoming attacked by a coyote include:
“If you meet a coyote, make it feel unwelcome by yelling, throwing rocks and sticks at it, stamping your feet, spraying it with a hose or banging pots and pans.”
Make sure when you go for a walk or a jog, that the garden hose is long enough and you turn the water on before you leave.
