Urges New Jersey's Division of Fish and Wildlife to reduce the state's coyote population.
This resolution urges the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's Division of Fish and Wildlife to reduce the coyote population in New Jersey. The resolution cites increasing coyote sightings since 1980, with coyotes now present in all 21 counties. As coyotes expand into urban and suburban areas, interactions with humans and pets have increased, along with the risk of attacks. Habituation and disease in coyotes can lead to aggressive behavior, posing a threat to public safety.
