Lions, Coyotes, & Bears: Part 2 - The Coyote Villain
About this episode
If the mountain lion is thought of as a celebrity, then, many would think of the coyote as a villain. LAist Correspondent Emily Guerin looks into why we vilify coyotes, what scientists actually know about them, and how they’ve adapted and thrived in some of the most urban parts of Southern California. Emily also explores the historic and cultural baggage that may inform people’s attitudes about coyotes.
CONTENT ADVISORY: This episode includes details about a deadly coyote attack of a toddler.
