Riverside County follows California Department of Fish and Wildlife guidance: coyotes are not relocated, attractants must be removed, and hazing by residents is encouraged, with depredation permits required for lethal removal.
Coyote encounters are common across Riverside County's wildland-urban interface, including Temescal Valley, Coachella Valley foothills, and Jurupa. RCDAS does not trap or relocate healthy coyotes; California Fish and Game Code Section 4152 designates coyotes as nongame mammals managed by CDFW. Residents are required to secure trash, eliminate pet food outdoors, and never intentionally feed wildlife under Ordinance 532. Hazing techniques such as yelling, waving, and noisemakers are encouraged. Lethal removal requires a CDFW depredation permit issued only after documented livestock or pet attacks.
Feeding coyotes, leaving pet food outside overnight, or unsecured trash that attracts wildlife may trigger nuisance abatement notices and fines under Ordinance 532 starting at $100.
