Urban coyotes.

I wasn't aware that almost every urban area in the United States has coyotes.

Expanding beyond the rural West over the past century—despite efforts early on by farmers and ranchers, with federal help, to exterminate them—coyotes now reside in every state except Hawaii. Their infiltration into cities and suburbs in recent decades, Gompper says, is simply a side effect of their overall range expansion. "At this point, all cities have them. Urban coyotes are probably much more common than people realize." No one knows how many coyotes live in urban areas. Their total U.S. population could be anywhere from one to ten million.

Turns out urban and suburban environments are more or less ideal habitats for them.
