Coyotes:
Coyotes are common throughout Illinois. Coyotes occur in nearly all types of habitat, including urban and suburban areas. Their numbers have increased dramatically in recent years.
The increase of coyotes has had an impact on other species of wildlife. When we started noticing an increase in the coyote population, we started finding a large number of dead fox, and a noticeable decrease in the number of pheasants. We have even observed a decrease in the local deer population due to coyotes preying upon fawns, and even adult deer.
The increase in coyotes is being noticed by many in urban and suburban settings. It is no longer uncommon to see them running right through the middle of town. Coyotes are adapting to these areas and often invade spaces where they are not welcome.
They are attacking and killing dogs for territorial reasons, and eating pet cats as prey. Coyotes have no natural predators, and if they are not controlled the population will continue to increase as well as the problems associated with them.
We offer services to trap and remove nuisance coyote. Please contact us for a quote.
Coyotes are numerous as you can see in our photos, many of which they are walking around in the daytime, when pets are out and vulnerable.
