Colo. - More pet deaths linked to coyotes

A pet peacock and a 150-pound German shepherd were likely attacked and killed by coyotes on a Broomfield property, the same night a neighbor's pug was attacked. The attacks occurred late Sunday night or early Monday morning in the 14600 block of Irving Street, said residents and the Broomfield Police Department. Two pet owners on the rural block said coyotes are a common sight and that the animals jump high fences to attack the pets. "They've gotten more and more aggressive," Broomfield resident Rosalie Cooper said of the coyotes. "They've gotten really bad."...Denver Post
