Pasadena grapples with how to handle coyote conflicts

Some Pasadena residents are looking for a more humane alternative to curbing the coyote population in the area, opposing a plan to begin trapping and killing the animals to keep them out of neighborhoods.

Nobody cares about coyotes. Show the homeless problem

It's simple stay away!! You moved into there backyard not the other way around!! Put up big fencing and leave them alone

This is more of a human problem overdeveloping in areas where wildlife will always be. being able to coexist with your surroundings is the way to a happier world and life.

Pasadena has always had coyotes. Same with every other city in California.

Around here, nobody "grapples" with the problem. lol. A .223 costs less than a dollar.

Residents don’t like it they can move! Coyotes were there first!

The only reason it cost 225, 000 dollars is because government was involved.

Listen to the peta 😂does not work she dont care if people get attacked all about the coyote

It's their home, they were here way before humans showed up.
If humans would keep their pets inside they wouldn't be getting eaten, if you let your cat outside obviously you don't care about them and shouldn't be having any pets honestly.

If anyone has a pitbull, you shouldn’t be worried about this 😂

Poor coyotes. Now will they address the crazy homeless?

[jasminespencer]

Feed the coyotes to the homeless. Or vice versa.

I love dogs. Maybe the coyotes want to go to the dog parade.
