DACC's 2017 Coyote Management Plan emphasizes coexistence, hazing, and attractant removal over lethal control. LACO Title 10.84.010 bans intentional feeding of coyotes and other wildlife in unincorporated areas, with citations and escalating fines for violations.
DACC's Coyote Management Plan, adopted in 2017, treats urban coyotes as a permanent neighbor and prioritizes coexistence: residents are taught hazing techniques (loud noise, eye contact, throwing objects) to keep coyotes wary. Lethal removal is reserved for animals showing aggressive or rabid behavior, and only by trained professionals. LACO Title 10.84.010 makes intentional feeding of coyotes and other wildlife in unincorporated LA County a violation, including leaving pet food outside, unsecured trash, and fallen fruit that draws wildlife. The same rule supports the cat and small-pet protection messaging.
Feeding coyotes or other wildlife under Title 10.84.010 brings administrative citations starting near one hundred dollars, escalating with repeat offenses. Chronic attractant problems can trigger county nuisance abatement and orders to secure trash, compost, or fruit trees.
