Audubon has a membership which probably spans all views of coyotes (Canis latrans) Audubon\u27s staff views coyotes as biologically appropriate predators in most of the Southwest. We believe that they can be an asset to a well-managed ranch, but that they can also cause localized depredation which must be answered. Our members value predators, including coyotes, for then- natural role in ecological systems, including their influence on prey species. Many of our members travel broadly and spend money to view wildlife, and consider it a treat to see and hear coyotes
