Coyote Photo Gallery

By Checked by CoyoteBytes Editorial TeamReview date First published Filed under Resources

The CoyoteBytes gallery shows rights-held coyote photographs supplied by the site owner. No photos are published yet. We do not use AI-generated wildlife images. While the gallery is empty, this page points to our safety guides and the UC IPM coyote Pest Notes, which describe coyote identification and damage signs.

Part of our guide: Coyote Pest Notes: Summary and Sources

This is general information, not veterinary, medical or legal advice. For an injured or aggressive animal, a bite, a pet attack or a suspected rabies exposure, call your doctor, your vet, local animal control, or the Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD).

This gallery belongs to our resources section. It is currently a placeholder.

Note for the owner: Photos for this page are supplied by the site owner, who must hold the rights. No images are added here, and no AI-generated wildlife images are used. Add rights-held photos with captions and alt text when available.

Photographing wildlife

The CDC advises keeping wildlife wild and staying away from wildlife. Keep your distance, never feed or corner a coyote, and call animal control or AZGFD about one that seems sick or aggressive.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the gallery empty?

The gallery will show only photographs that the site owner holds the rights to. None have been supplied yet, so we have published none. The site does not use AI-generated wildlife images, and we will not substitute stock or borrowed photos for this page.

Can I send in a photo?

Photo submissions are not open. The owner supplies rights-held photos for this page. If that changes, the contact page will say so. Do not approach a coyote to photograph it; the CDC advises staying away from wildlife for the safety of both people and animals.

Where can I learn to identify coyote signs?

The UC IPM coyote Pest Notes have sections on identification and biology and on identifying coyote damage, including tracks, hair, droppings, tooth marks and prey remains. Our Pest Notes page summarizes it and links to the original. It is a California publication, so confirm Arizona-specific points with AZGFD.

Is it safe to photograph a coyote up close?

Keep your distance. The CDC advises keeping wildlife wild and staying away from wildlife. Do not approach, feed or corner a coyote, and do not photograph one that looks sick or that may be protecting a den or pups. If an animal is aggressive or injured, call local animal control or AZGFD.

What should I do after a bite or scratch from a wild animal?

The CDC says to wash the wound right away with soap and water and to get medical care urgently if you may have been exposed to rabies. Call your doctor and local animal control. If a pet has had contact with a wild animal, call your vet and local animal control. Do not wait to see whether symptoms appear before calling.
