The warning is in response to several complaints of coyotes biting dogs and following people near Trafalgar Park in Arbutus Ridge.
With pups being born in spring, Lower Mainland coyotes are becoming more active in protecting their dens and seeking food for their young.
“If the animal approaches, act aggressively by standing tall and yelling. Most importantly, do not turn your back or run. Coyotes have a natural instinct to chase after prey and will pursue,” a statement issued last month reads. The park board says food is the main reason coyotes are becoming habituated to humans, which hugely increases the chances of a conflict.Article content
