Coyotes blamed for pet deaths

ATLANTA —

 

Residents in a northwest Atlanta neighborhood say they are concerned about coyotes on the loose.

Residents spoke to Channel 2’s Michael Buczyner, showing him surveillance video of the animals wandering through the neighborhood.

One woman blames coyotes for killing her cat in front of her home.

“If they’re willing to take a 20 pound cat before the sun comes up, it’s probably not safe to walk your small dogs around here. It’s frightening,” Renee Wright said.

The community said the incident is not the first time the coyotes have killed a neighborhood pet.

They are now developing a plan to protect their pets from coyotes.
