Coyote Week

It’s still Coyote Awareness Week (March 16–22), leading us to Coyote Day on March 23—a time to stand for coexistence, understanding, and respect.

Despite their resilience and vital role in ecosystems, coyotes continue to face widespread persecution through trapping, poisoning, and killing contests.

This week, Project Coyote is sharing science, stories, and solutions to help communities live alongside coyotes peacefully—and to replace fear with knowledge.

If you feel called, you can take part here:

Every small action helps protect one of North America’s most iconic and misunderstood wild canids.

Together, we can create a future where coyotes are not feared—but respected, protected, and allowed to simply be 🐺💙

During Coyote Awareness Week (March 16–22), leading up to Coyote Day on March 23, we take a moment to recognize one of North America’s most intelligent and misunderstood wild beings.

Coyotes are deeply family-oriented, devoted to their mates and pups, and play an essential role in maintaining healthy ecosystems by naturally balancing rodent populations.

This week is about celebrating peaceful coexistence—those quiet, meaningful moments where humans and coyotes share the same landscape.

Coyote Watch Canada is inviting you to be part of this celebration.
You can share your own coyote stories, photos, artwork, or poems here:
