Coyote Sightings in College Park: What you need to know

/ District 2 Councilmembers - College Park, MD
Coyotes are becoming a bit more common in Maryland, but you can protect yourself and your pets with these simple steps:
 
·    Avoid feeding pets outside
·    Keep pets leashed & supervised
·    Report concerns to DNR at 1-877-463-6497
 
If a coyote seems unafraid, use hazing techniques like loud noises, small objects, or a spray bottle to scare it away.
 
As always, any sick or injured wildlife can be reported to the City of College Park Animal Control office, however, we cannot remove or mitigate healthy wildlife for nuisance purposes.
