Jackson, CA – A lonesome coyote pup, who lost his family, squeezed into a California resident’s dog kennel seeking companionship. The touching incident was recounted by Tri County Wildlife Care last week; the non-profit organization said:
Coyotes are beneficial predators and we can coexist with them. This pup lost his family and squeezed through into a kennel to be with a kind resident’s dogs.
The resident reached out to the agency to come and retrieve the coyote pup and it was taken to Dr. Alison Pillsbury of Acorn Hills Animal Center to be examined, vaccinated, dewormed, and treated for fleas and ticks.
The future is bright for this orphaned pup – the organization said:
This baby will be placed at another great rescue with other coyote pups to grow up wild and free.
The organization explains why coyotes are important, and thanked the resident for reaching out for help:
We need a diversity in wildlife to have a healthy ecosystem. Thanks to the kindness of this dog owner, this pup is getting a second chance at life. If you need help with wildlife conflicts, please call us at 209-283-3245
