A man in North Carolina had a harrowing encounter with a coyote while smoking outside his home. Feeling watched, he was suddenly charged at by the animal, resulting in a life-or-death struggle. Pulliam managed to choke the coyote for ten minutes until police arrived, fearing for his own life. He was hospitalized for bite wounds and received rabies shots afterward. The deceased coyote is under examination for rabies by local animal services, showing the dangers of wildlife interactions.
"He jumped on me and I caught him in the air, he was biting me, and so when I threw him down and I'm trying to slide out of the way, he just kept coming."
"I had to rip my left hand out of his mouth, and when I got my left hand out, I just choked him all the way till the police got there."
