The beautiful College Park West neighborhood in Seal Beach has been having ongoing conflicts with coyotes, especially in the rear yards of homes that back up to Edison Park. This morning, May 22nd, a resident reported yet another incident and saved his dog from a coyote in his backyard.
“The city recognizes that this is a serious problem, and is taking steps to address it”, said Seal Beach City Manager David Carmany. A neighborhood meeting was held on May 1st; approximately 40 residents attended to express their concerns. Since that meeting, City volunteers have distributed educational flyers to all 322 homes in the neighborhood and also posted warning signs on every street light pole. The city put up a banner at the entrance to the tract to alert residents.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, by making life for coyotes in your neighborhood more difficult, you will increase the likelihood that they will go somewhere else. Any Seal Beach resident observing a coyote in the neighborhood is encouraged to phone the Animal Services Department at (562) 570-7387 to report the sighting or encounter.
