Coyotes are thriving in Portland! While out doing appraisal work, I spotted this one casually strolling through the Grant Park neighborhood.
The Portland Urban Coyote Project tracks thousands of sightings across the metro area—check their interactive map to see how widespread they are. Coyotes even pop up in real estate listings sometimes (usually as a wildlife bonus or pet-safety note).
They rarely approach people, but always observe from a distance. Spot one? Snap a photo and report it at portlandcoyote.com!
