What You’ll Learn
Texas is home to a thriving coyote population, especially within the DFW Metroplex. Understanding how these “Song Dogs” operate is the first step toward a peaceful partnership between humans and wildlife.
In this workshop, Karin and Roberto Saucedo will share their extensive expertise on:
- Decoding Behavior: Identifying typical vs. concerning coyote activity.
- Safe Coexistence: Practical tips for protecting pets and property.
- Humane Management: Why hazing and education are more effective than traditional removal methods.
Following the main presentation, River Legacy’s Scott Matula will lead an exclusive Coyote Track Study. This hands-on segment is perfect for nature enthusiasts interested in wildlife tracking and identifying signs of coyote presence in our local ecosystem.
