Be Coyote SMART

The City has received reports from residents about coyote sightings around Palm Beach Gardens. Do your part to Be Coyote SMART! Do not intentionally or unintentionally feed coyotes. Please feed your pets inside and secure your garbage receptacle. Do not allow cats and small dogs out at night unless you accompany them. Obey leash laws to prevent dogs from confronting coyotes. Merely seeing a coyote is not a reason for alarm, as they are native wildlife and live among us.

Safe to observe from a distance.
Make noise if they are too close.
Accompany pets outside.
Remove bird feeders; these attract small birds and mammals, a coyote’s natural food.
Take in the trash, pet foods and other possible attractants.

Visit our Be Coyote SMART page for more resources.
