Almost. I was followed by a coyote in broad daylight and it scared the shit out of mine. I did try to scare it away with a whistle and loud noises but it didn't work. I wasn't going to stand there and wait to get bitten so I ran and it chased me. I managed to get home safely but I was so terrified but what makes me so mad are all the neighbors protecting coyotes and saying that they are here first and have a right to do what they want. Coyotes have killed many people's pet cats and small dogs in my neighborhood as well as hangout near parks, schools and malls yet people still defend them.
