Coyotes in Wildwood: Stay Safe, Don't Feed | Philadelphia News

Coyotes are popping up everywhere in Wildwood, sparking a wave of sightings and sparking concern — but here’s the scoop: don’t feed them. Feeding wildlife is illegal and can lead to fines up to $500, plus it makes coyotes bolder and more dangerous around humans. These adaptable critters help control rodent populations, but they can still pose risks to pets and property. Experts say stay calm, make noise if you spot one, secure your trash, and keep pets leashed or indoors. If you see something sketchy, report it — and always remember: keep your distance.
