What to do if you encounter a coyote, wolf or fox
If you see a coyote, wolf or fox, keep your distance and the animal will most likely avoid you.
If you encounter an aggressive animal:
- Never approach or touch a wild animal
- Do not turn your back or run from a wild animal
- Back away from the animal while remaining calm
- Stand tall, wave your hands, and make lots of noise
- Carry a flashlight at night
- if a wild animal poses an immediate threat or danger to public safety — call 911
