You can't tell dumb people nothing 😂
They should fine the hell out of people that feed them.
Why?? Who cares bro. Grow up
And people that feed stray cats
Its because people think they are cute. People are stupid. And you can't fix that 😂
Many city folk tend to think that animals in nature are starving, that they need to be fed. They don't understand how wild animals live, that they need to live naturally, that being fed by people endangers the animal's freedom by way of teaching it dependence on man, and that it also presents dangers to the animal and to those around it. If they are old enough to have gone camping with their folks in national forests back in the 1960-1970s, they would have heard the Forest Rangers say *_a lot_* that "a fed bear is a dead bear" because creating that association between man and food teaches the animal to seek food from people, which then endangers both. As a result, the bear would come around people, and the Forest Service would have to relocate the bear further away, and after the bear would still come back, they often had to put the bear down. Don't feed wildlife, keep them wild and free! Respect their wildness!
@@cacatr4495 I have seen some deer that eat junk human food. They don't shed or in patches. Plus they get skinny and weak
Look horrible 😕
This is serious, I used to live by Sam Boyd Stadium, I knew people who lost their dogs and cats killed by the coyotes. One even went after a small child, the mother had to chase it off! DON'T FEED THEM!!
They need to be fined heavily
I was attacked for my in n out bag of burgers by 4 coyotes. I had no idea they ate burgers n fries. One even picked up my cup of Pepsi and drank it
They left the janky fries alone though, I bet.
@@jayce8001 it always amazes me how they can do fries so wrong like that. they have all the right things to make really good fries but they dont
That's what you get for ordering Animal style
@@johnsmith-dx1fb ahhhhhhhh that’s a good one
Hahahahahaha dude I am sorry but you made me laugh so hard
Look what the woman is feeding them..."Bread" Your old, stale bread... These types of people also feed geese and ducks, "bread" Their old, crappy, stale, bread. For some reason, they think they are such wonderful, loving people to give wildlife the WORST of the WORST food that is very unhealthy for them. If you try and tell these types of people, it just pisses them off, because the are standing on their "high moral ground" and ignorance. Leave the wildlife alone, and let them be wild.
LOL!!!Yep!!!@@Rodosom
Wow lol the irony is not for everyone
They eat trash bro
Yeah a coyote will find food.. they don't need bread there's plenty of rabbits
Well said@ironmaiden4396
Coyotes are very intelligent and cunning just like humans.
But humans are by far worse than coyotes. Humans are just at least a majority of them are so cunning, selfish and evil creatures roaming the planet.
Wow
woof.
Coyotes will stalk, hunt, pets and small children. They are pack animals, so if you see one, there is most likely several others around. I live near them too, and quite a few of my neighbors carry a firearm while walking their dogs just in case which is a far better idea than trying to feed the coyotes. It truly stuns me how dumb some people are, this is just common sense living in the desert. What's next, "Karen found dead after attempting the feed the rattlesnakes." Usually coyotes and rattlesnakes are where the jackrabbits are around. Jackrabbits are the main food source for both of them. Please don't invite the coyotes into the neighborhood, I'd rather bag one on a hunting trip than bag one trying to eat my dog.
They luv cats.
stalk, not stock.
@charlesbolin - 😂 "Karen found dead after attempting to feed the rattlesnakes."
@@dougadams9419 Damn autocorrect lol
Jackrabbits are huge. The only rattlesnakes around here are Western Diamondback (uncommon), Speckled, Mohave and Sidewinder. None of these could even come close to eating a jackrabbit. They eat mice and lizards almost exclusively.
I guess that's why they make 22. Pistols
Perhaps she's poisoning them.
She probably a bad cook but the coyotes like it😂
😂
What kind of sandwich do coyotes prefer 🤔

People feed coyotes and then they lose their pets or get bit, then they cant figure it out. Keep Coyotes afraid of people.
People are so reckless with their pets sometimes. I saw a video where there's a bear close to an open garage and the idiot home owner is trying to encourage his dog to go after it. The bear came after it lightning quick. Not sure what happened after because the video ends.
@@tapewerm6716 around my front patio I had installed last year a 7 ft fence so my little dogs can go out to the door and potty. It's good enough for them to do a quick run outside. My main property is fenced by a 4 foot one around my one acre property. When I see the coyotes in or outside the main fence going after the wild rabbits I run them off with a bat. I know their animals but I just want to scare them but if one turns on me then it's lights out for them. Fortunately in my six years living here I have had only two occasions of doing this. I guess they find an easier place to hunt. My two little 12 pound dogs are trusting so I have to do whatever I can to protect them. Plus when I hear mine hit the doggy I put the camera on. But it's not only the coyotes people around here feed the wild horses and donkeys. I believe the wild animals need to be left alone with the exception of humming birds which can be feed for our love of nature.
One time I got bitten by a cougar so I kicked her out of my house
Did you get tested?
Hahahahahahahaha
@@ipenguin3918you really didn’t get that wow
They are predators. Maybe the state should start keeping the population in check around populated areas.
She's got to be from the East Coast. Everyone originally from here knows you don't feed wild life. It'd be like us going to Flordia and feeding the gators. Sheesh.
If you want to feed the Coyotes, go a mile into the mountain and leave the food when NO COYOTES are around. Other than that, DON'T FEED THEM NEAR HUMAN living areas.
This is common sense. The Wild life department needs to visit that woman and warn her that if she does it again, she will be charged.
Would they feed a bobcat stale bread too?!? 😅
Don't feed wildlife at all. They need their natural diet, not man's poor substitute. Animals observe people when we don't realize it, they see us when we don't see them, they *_are_* around even when we don't see them, so they will still see a person leaving food out there, thus still making the association between man and food. It will still draw them down towards man's habitats. Respect wildlife's wildness, keep them wild and free!
@@cacatr4495 I guess I should have been more clear. Of course, if you're going to feed them, feed them something they eat in the wild. bread a bunch of rabbits and release them high on the mountain. I figured that was a given. This woman feeding bread is stupid on many levels. Lastly, some times wild life does need our help. Example, during hard winters, they will drop hay bails in the mountain by helicopter to keep deer alive.
@@factmanamerican882 Don't even do that .. the coyotes are far from starving. That's why there's so damn many of them. So you're worried about the coyotes but to hell with the rabbits?
Telling people to NOT feed wild animals is almost always ignored. The woman feeding them could have been bitten, but it doesn't look like she was concerned for her safety.
When I was about 16, I was walking home in the summerlin area by palo verde and a coyote passed me, i thought it was a dog so i started to call it but when I looked at it I realized it was a coyote 😂😂. It just looked at me and walked off.
How many people have been bitten by domesticated animals in that same time? I bet twice as many
Well, people these days need to stop keeping bacon in their pockets. Lol 😂
😂😂😂 lol wut
Vegas has gone to the dogs, overpriced & unsafe (and I'm not talking coyotes)
Lots of problems with coyotes and human pets all along the rapid development area of Blue Diamond Road...also, lots of imported exotic animals people abandon when they leave - all of a sudden you have too many peacocks - a big fat coyote, obviously fed by humans, took out the alpha male peacock who was exhausted by summer heat in my neighborhood in Enterprise - coyotes are predators and they are NOT impressed easily by humans. In another Vegas neighborhood with wild peacocks, someone got their bow and arrow out and killed the alpha male that way - did they ever catch who did that? Peacock poop on the car is a major trigger to violence for some people, I guess...
There is no worse environment for peacocks than a desert...read up on how peacock poop, as a fertilizer, led to fields of unique blue-green lawns surrounding estates in France, back when...open fields of grass and wooded areas is where peacocks add to natural splendor...
People who feed wild, healthy animals, are doing the worst thing possible! Never mind attacking humans, when these wild animals are being fed by us, they lose their ability to sustain themselves naturally and end up starving in the long run!
I feed the birds sunflower seeds from my feeders year round I like seeing them and now I have a hawk nesting every year on my property and a barn owl has moved in this year to get the mice and other critters that visit the feeders during the night. I enjoy watching the birds of prey swooping in at lightning speed to grab a easy meal the sunflower seed hulls make for great compost so its a full ecosystem
I was there in the lake Las Vegas plaza january 9th and a coyote went pass me, like 2ft away back I and forth like it was looking for something and then 20mn later found out he bit a little kid
Reasons not to feed wild animals. Irresponsability pays itself forward too.
Not even trying to get views.
Don't feed the coyotes. They might have you for lunch! !
City life makes you stupid.
Well MAYBE if you STOP building into their home then maybe just maybe they won't bother you 🙄
I can’t believe the ones who are feeding coyotes are that foolish to believe that is okay. SMH
You have to make a law prohibiting the feeding . The police NEED a law in order to act.
The coyote by the campus didn't want the salami
That's retired females for you. I've had a coyote grab one of my little dogs before. Yelling and rocks made it drop her. I'd be more worried about your pets. Losing fear of people will pass on to their young too. It strange those kinds of things carry on dna but it does.
Duh.
That woman feeding them is Stupid to the bone !!!
I remember commenting on a vid 2 years ago not to feed them. Someone was saying to feed them because they're hungry.
It's not an absolute. There's no harm in leaving food for wildlife, but for predator species, you cannot leave food where they see you doing it, otherwise they will make that association to people. And these animals should not be fed near public places, like parks. And people who feed feral cats in urban spaces contribute directly to this problem, because the coyotes will show up too.
@@ReptileRescue this person i refer to said "throw them some food. They're just hungry."
We had a dumb neighbor in our ghost town that fed coyotes every friggin day. Created a nightmare.
What area of Lake Las Vegas is this? I’m moving there this year and searching for a home…
This is very concerning, do they know if the lady has mental health issues maybe? I mean that she even got out of that alive is a miracle.
You invade their land/home, and you're saying they're the problem.
People are just stupid, this feeding them puts the coyote in danger , an come into town . Coyotes need to eat the wildlife they have .plus throwing food brings bugs
People don’t listen , give big fines an jail time then they might listen
For sure dude this is so sad
Do not feed carnivorous wild animals... how hard is this to understand? 🤦♂
That road into the village is always littered with food and take out bags. The Village is littered with scraps of food and bags that are guanteed to attract wildlife. The birds love circling around there because people are just rude in public areas. There are plenty for trash cans but nope…… just toss it. it’s quite sad. Can’t blame the animals, blame the humans that encourage this behavior. The woman that was feeding them needs to be fined and do community service cleanup in that area. How embarrassing.
youtube keeps deleting my comment. I can't figure out what word the AI doesn't like.
I might have to take a stroll over there.

I have been chased twice by coyotes twice near LLV.
Wow.
was you eating a hamburger?
Well,well wildlife problems because you couldn't stop building in the wildlife neighborhood !
Animal control knows that animals are acting strange due to large amounts of fentinal in the water in some places.
What side effects do the vaccine cause ?
That lady needs to be arrested.
Why is fox reporting on coyote 😂🦊🐺
Put a law in affect if you feed them or get bit by one you have to pay $1k fine duhhh 😅 it’s a simple rule to prevent dumb people from doing dumb things….
Well…it IS Henderson
Ok right now as my kids are running around screaming and playing and just won't settle down, I have a headache and did u guys say ..WE CAN FEED OUR KIDS TO THE COYOTES? Where do I take them?!!! LoL
Should be a fine for feeding.
That lady thinks she's Riddick.
They mate for life and are excellent parents and can survive the harshest environments maybe we need to learn from them not destroy them.
They’re cute too, look like German shepherds
I agree. There are coyotes in every single city on the mainland of America. They have thrived with humans while most animals have declined and suffered.
That's great and I respect coyotes.... However, that doesn't mean that we need to FEED them.
choot em
Coyotes are beautiful animals. But DONT FEED THEM...
Simply telling people not to feed wildlife doesn't address the underlying reasons, as many do it out of kindness without understanding the potential harm. Instead, we need a two-pronged approach:
Comprehensive education: Inform the public, including children, about the negative consequences of feeding wildlife, like dependence on human food, aggression towards people, and disease transmission. This could involve engaging educational campaigns, school talks, and informative signage in parks and nature reserves.
Safe animal interaction: Provide alternative ways for people to connect with and appreciate animals responsibly. This could include organizing visits to sanctuaries, supporting ethical wildlife documentaries, or hosting educational talks with wildlife experts.
Hide your pets
Humans took their land...im sure its just territory
ffs
The Indian said the same thing
Humans keep infringing on the coyotes home. When does it stop. People are the problem not the coyotes. I feel sorry for wildlife. People forget this was their home before it was our home.
It begins…
OMG!
The lady who was feeding them got them all killed.
That stupid woman feeding them should be fined.
Oh no! We can’t have those overpaid and pampered footballers getting bitten!
Stop feeding then. People have been feeding them in Bruce Trent park
Well this is how we got dogs from wolves just saying 😂😂😂
Come on you guys... If you MUST feed something... There are plenty of feral cat colonies that need to be fed! And don't feed the cats to the coyotes either!!
Their favorite food is beans. Human beans.
duhhhh
No shit
City folk SMH
As long as New Age people will feed, pet and kiss the "cute" wildlife (oh-I-have-a-fluid-energy-attracking-animals) bears, coyotes, foxes, deers, ducks, chipmunks, squirrels, groundhogs, lemurs and monkeys abroad, we will see the rise of strange immune diseases.
-Biochemist on board
I bet you don't live around wild animals, huh boy? It's the gutless rubes doing the shit you popped off about. I know that for a fact.
Here kitty, kitty, kitty...
Duh...like do NOT bear or try pet the bears hello...
People should stay home.. and stop going out looking for trouble.
People that feed these animals are killing them in the long run People ain't going put up with animals biting them leave the animals alone admire them from a distance and leave them alone
Wow vegas looking like Tj now. 😂 what part of vegas is that?? So crowded with all those fugly apartment buildings like the projects. Sad.
The places these developers are building houses are crazy I work up there encroaching on they hunting grounds
DON'T FEED THE COYOTES 🗣️🗣️😂😂😂😂
Coyotes don’t bite ppl lol
At least 14 children were killed, and 19 other children were injured in leopard attacks in five years in the Tanahun district here in Nepal - in addition 6 men and woman were killed.... But we can not kill the leopards. I'm making a small eco-resort here and the first thing I made was a big enclosures for my dogs to keep them safe
Thank you for the report. Very sad.
The last Grizzly Bear from California was killed in Southern California in the
1930’s. They occupied almost half of the USA. Our ancestors knew what they were doing. Today, that wouldn’t be allowed. 😳
Our wildlife is doing without food and water more than ever in addition to these housing developments in their natural habitat. Feeding these animals isn’t a good idea it puts them at risk including their young where the coyotes deserve more respect for what they serve as natural balance even on behalf of humans. Who is accountable for these who’ve been euthanized and bread isn’t a food stability… Better yet is for humans to stop encroaching on their and other wildlife habitats
.243 👍
Four people bitten, not bit. Try not to talk like Yosemite Sam!
These animals were their first that's their home
Live by the mountains get closer to wildlife...
They outlawed hunting them to keep their numbers down now they are over populated and ran out of rabbits to eat. Children are at risk the hare brains who allowed this to reach this point need to be sued!
Over populated? Nah. That's now how it works. Learn about coyotes bro. They control their litter size in accordance with their habitat. A lack of rabbits would mean less coyotes. You can't cull coyotes dude. That's common knowledge for people who live around them. Maybe you just want to play hunter boy.
They lost their habitats to human .
Coyotes was there first so how can you complain living in the mountains but want to implement rules humans can be annoying
Note to self: *_stop looking so delicious._*
Too many people in their territory.
People need to quit moving to vegas. Thats coyote habitat. Duh.
You took their habitat, please
If people are feeding the Coyotes the animals are not at fault. i love these beautiful, intelligent, mystical beings and feel terrible; 10 Coyotes murdered just so that some selfish people who want their place in the hills can invade the home of wildlife. What 99% of people don't realize is that if the Coyotes were there first, they simply stay, that's THEIR home and they will NEVER leave the area. Don't blame the Coyotes, learn to live with them.
I have an even BIGGER scoop for you.... how about we STOP BUILDING SINGLE FAMILY HOUSES IN THEIR TERRITORY?????
Most States have open season on them. And feral hogs.
