The Mayor of Mission, B.C., is warning against feeding or approaching coyotes after nine Coyote Attacks were reported in the city within a week. The attacks resulted in people seeking medical attention, but no serious injuries occurred. The mayor believes that the rise in attacks is due to people interacting with and feeding the animals, conditioning them to humans. The city has closed the Silverdale Creek Wetlands as a precaution and increased patrols in the area. The public is urged to take precautions and not feed wildlife, with fines possible for those who do so.
