Virtual: Coexisting with Coyotes in Suburban Communities
Thursday, May 9, 7:00—8:00 PM, Hosting library Zoom account
Eastern coyotes are found in nearly every town and city in Massachusetts, and they can thrive close to humans in a variety of habitats.
Join this webinar to learn about eastern coyote biology, how coyotes use suburban areas, and how communities like Andover can take effective steps to coexist with coyotes.

He has 15 years of experience conducting black bear research and has been the Black Bear and Furbearer Biologist with the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (MassWildlife) since 2016.
