Late last week (Thurs) and yesterday morning (Mon, 10/17) I saw 2 coyotes on Albers between Hazeltine and Woodman. Please post a warning on the neighborhood watch board for people who own cats and small dogs to keep them in at night. When I saw the coyotes last Thursday morning (6 am), they had already killed a black cat.
