Around here they use what look like black plastic/metal dogs....perhaps they are supposed to be coyotes. They do not scare the geese off at all....the geese take no notice of them.

Even with real coyotes around we have lots of geese.
About the only thing that really bothers them is a Remington SP 10

Quite possibly, they are not making much of a dent in the goose population, similarly with wild turkeys and rabbits we have had huge numbers born this year.

Presume it wasnt a road runner bird then with an anvil

This is not something any department of city government is bothered about, so they are just left to breed and go through garbage and attack household pets.

There is discussion about what should be done, from nothing from coyote huggers, to drugging and moving to the mountains to killing the bastards. I,'m all for wild life in the wild but they can sod off out of the city, this is our manor.

Any other cities under the menace of coyotes?
Why are they a menace? Other than to cats and small pets? They live in Griffith Park near my home. No biggie.

BTW, the term "coyote" is slang on the southern border for alien smugglers. [The smuglees are "pollos."] So I did a double-take at your caption.

Where's there one - there's usually a few not too far away.

Around here they're becoming more and more brazen. Last month, a local man was briefly attacked by 3 of them and was given 9 shots "everything from rabies to tetnus" as he quipped ... They're cunning b'stards, usually one or two will try to play with your dog and lure it to where a pack awaits, and game over.
