"The coyote was exhibiting a very healthy wariness of humans. Coyotes are, on the whole, uncomfortable and suspicious of humans. We're somewhat unpredictable to them, which makes them want to keep their distance and keep watch to see what we're up to. They took note of your arrival and whether you were aware of it or not, kept an eye on you as you went about your work."
"When you came back toward them, they gave you a reminder that they were aware of you and weren't going to tolerate any aggressive moves on your part. You should be just as wary of the coyotes as they are of you. Attacks are rare, but it's always wise to know where they are and avoid actions that might be considered hostile to them."
Coyotes generally exhibit wariness and suspicion toward humans because humans are unpredictable to them. Coyotes observe arrivals, monitor people, and may issue a visible warning if approached again to signal intolerance of aggressive moves. People should remain cautious, avoid actions that could be perceived as hostile, and keep track of coyote locations. If coyotes advance aggressively, people should throw objects, make noise, appear larger, and back away without turning their back. Cats are far less trusting than dogs and rarely accept pills hidden in treats, so veterinary consultation is recommended for alternative administration methods.
