Coyote Sightings in Pleasanton: What to Know
Coyote Sightings in Pleasanton: What to Know
- July 7, 2025
As temperatures rise, it's common to see coyotes in Pleasanton neighborhoods and along local trails, particularly during their pup-rearing season from March through August. Coyotes are a natural part of our environment, and most encounters are not aggressive.
Here are a few important safety reminders:
- Stay calm if you see a coyote.
- Keep children close and pets on a leash.
- Avoid hiking alone.
- If approached, do not run. Maintain eye contact, make yourself look large, wave your arms, and slowly back away.
- Never feed coyotes or leave pet food outside.
- Secure garbage bins and remove fallen fruit from around your home.
