What appears to be a coyote was spotted in Toronto’s east end early Thursday morning. Twitter user Tim Mitra snapped a photo of the animal on the run near Gerrard Street and Logan Avenue.
The city issued warnings earlier this year that spring and summer 2017 could be a busy season for coyotes in the city.

The city has recommendations of how to respond to urban coyote sightings on their website. They ar typically non-confrontational with humans, but you should call 311 if you observe any of the following behaviours.
