The article explores the recent viral incident of Chicago police pulling a live coyote from a refrigerated display at an Aldi supermarket. It highlights the growing presence of coyotes and other wildlife in urban settings, demonstrating their adaptability. Despite efforts to control coyote populations following complaints of pet predation, these animals continue to thrive in densely populated areas. The piece emphasizes that killing individual coyotes doesn't effectively manage the population, as newcomers will always replace them, underscoring their persistence in urban environments.
Attempts to eradicate the coyote have been failing spectacularly for hundreds of years. Even if a particular coyote is killed, other coyotes will simply move in.
Coyotes live among us, and they will always live among us. They are right there, crouched under a bush, curled up behind a fence.
