Our house backs up to Rock Creek,which runs thru DC into the MD suburbs. We have coyotes and Fox. The game warden says bears,small black bears. I have never seen one here. I am from Oklahoma originally and love to hear the animals at night calling to or for their mates.

We have them here is CA too. I live in Orange County in a very populated area - they are still here! We had them right outside our house doing their mating song a few months ago...hard to sleep with that.

I live north of Denver and something attacked our 17 yr old cat so badly we had to have him put to sleep. my husband let him out to potty at 2 a.m. and something hurt him so quickly. either a coyote or perhaps a fox.not sure what. we have both around here and in the City too!!

we live in the country and hear them all the time-they are more afraid of you then you are of them.they never bother people.small critters need to be wary tho.we have dogs but they do not run free-they have a 1/4 acre fenced in area to run.we also have a few wolves in our area.

They used to be here and howling right next to the house. The sound they make when they made a kill. It is sad, they are still here but not as frequent. I used to see them every day by our home but now with all the new neighborhoods they are dissapearing along with the road runner, bobcat, cougar, rattlers and quail. I agree with wolph33 they are not really a threat to humans but they are to your pets.

I'll tell those govenment officials that you want to do a relocation project to your state.
