Coyotes on the prowl again
This time, they've been seen on Milwaukee's south side.
The ever so helpful Department of Natural Resources says it will supply concerned citizens with a list of licensed trappers. That'll work, especially when a coyote is gnawing on your child or pet.
You'll recall this was a problem not too long ago in our quiet little Camelot, Franklin. Franklin residents do have options if they spot a coyote:
1) Start clapping your hands loudly
2) Scream, "Hey, get out of here!"
3) Run to the phone and dial 9-1-1
4) Pray
5) Cross fingers
6) Hope
But do not, I repeat, do not, if you are licensed gun owner attempt to shoot that animal, even if it is attacking you, a family member, neighbor, or pet. That would just be so wrong.
