Coyotes in South Everett Getting Bold | Seattle News

Coyotes are becoming a neighborhood reality in South Everett, with sightings popping up near homes and even in backyards—bold enough to stroll just 20 feet away without a flinch. Residents are adjusting routines, with some restricting kids’ outdoor play and others fearing their pets are at risk. While coyotes are legally protected as non-game animals, property owners can act if they’re causing damage or harming pets. The city recommends noise or water to deter them, and the state’s “carnivore spotter” program lets locals report sightings to help track and warn others about these increasingly comfortable urban roamers.
