Coyotes are clever, adaptable animals found all across Texas, including prairies, neighborhoods, and greenbelt areas. They help keep ecosystems balanced by controlling rodent populations. Coyotes are usually shy and prefer to avoid people, but they are always watching, listening, and learning.
Coyotes can run up to 40 miles per hour.
They communicate with yips and howls, and each pack has its own “sound.”
Coyotes help control pests by eating rodents like rats and mice.
Stable. Coyotes are highly adaptable and continue to thrive in Texas.
Wildlife organizations focus on education and safe coexistence.
Never feed coyotes, keep small pets supervised outdoors, and secure trash and food sources around your home.
