Called to a home where the resident found the fantastic beast asleep on patio cushions, San Francisco Animal Care & Control Officer Laura Mullen arrived to see the coyote still chilling the day away.“I approached the coyote and started talking to him, telling him that it was time to get up,” she wrote in aentry on Friday. “He looked at me, got up, took a big stretch and made his way to the edge of the yard. He was moving appropriately and did not appear sick or injured.
Mullen said the male coyote appeared to be a healthy yearling who was likely looking for a mate to establish a den of its own.
