Public Service Announcement Transcript: Keep Me Wild - Coyotes The howl of the coyote conjures images of the wild west and reminds us that we still share the land with California’s wild animals. Coyotes instinctively avoid people but when people feed them they may lose their natural fear. To a hungry coyote the family pet is a potential meal. Wild animals don’t need your handouts, they need your respect. For more information visit KeepMeWild.org. Brought to you by the California Department of Fish and Game.
