Miami-Dade County does not run a coyote trapping program; under Florida wildlife rules, residents are encouraged to haze coyotes, secure pets and trash, and report aggressive animals to Animal Services and FWC.
Coyotes are present throughout Miami-Dade, including urban edges near the Everglades and parks. Florida classifies coyotes as a year-round nongame species, and the county defers active management to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). Residents should keep small pets indoors at dawn and dusk, secure trash bins, and remove pet food and fallen fruit. Hazing—yelling, waving arms, banging pots—is encouraged to maintain coyotes’ natural fear of humans. Animal Services accepts reports of sick, injured, or unusually bold coyotes and coordinates with FWC when an animal poses a public-safety threat.
Feeding coyotes intentionally violates Chapter 5 wildlife-feeding rules and can trigger civil citations and daily fines until conditions are corrected.
