This workshop provides animal control officers, first responders, and agency personnel with guidance for addressing coyote activity, beginning with an introduction to the California Valley Coyote and its unique traits, followed by real case scenarios to examine common conflicts, their root causes, and proven strategies to resolve them. The course will also present the essential components of an effective Coyote Response Plan, including terminology, elements of a strong reporting system, methods for evaluating coyote behavior and assessing threat levels, and a guide for responding to specific scenarios. The workshop will also address the humane and legal implications of trapping. Participants will receive templates for educational materials and an example of a comprehensive Coyote Response Plan.
