Upper Valley Residents Want Something Done About Coyote Attacks Coyotes are causing problems for some people in El Paso’s Upper Valley and those people are asking for something to be done…by someone. The whole issue seems to be a “the buck stops nowhere” situation. When the coyote issue was brought up to a city representative they were told it was something to take up with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Texas Wildlife said it’s up to the city to co-ordinate any kind of plan. The city responded that El Paso’s Animal Services department only deals with domesticated animals and pets. When the question goes back to the State Wildlife Department, they said Texas game wardens had traced the coyotes back to Keystone Heritage Park. But the board president for Keystone Park said they’ve only ever seen one coyote there and that he believes the coyotes are coming from nearby arroyos. The city rep who was originally contacted says that she’s only gotten the single complaint about coyotes so maybe the story is being overblown?
