['I live out in the middle of nowhere and after not hearing them at all this summer, I heard a pack of coyotes the other night.', 'That would be really scary! What do you do if they get close to your home?', "I try to set up natural barriers to deter them. I'm sure they are scare of me more so than I am of them but they can be quite the nuisance and scary to see on sight."]
I would be terrified! It sounds like you have a good system to deal with them!
I heard a group of coyotes howling the other night. I had not heard them all summer long. I abhor running into them.
