Summary
We may be dog people — but really, we're animal people. And that means making room for all of them, even the ones with teeth and talons. In this episode, we dive into one of the most important (and occasionally heart-stopping) realities of life in today’s increasingly crowded world: predators are part of the deal. We focus on two of the most fascinating ones — coyotes and owls — and what it actually looks like to share space with them. Along the way, we introduce you to Jonny Quest, the teenage coyote who made himself our unofficial ranch greeter for several months. Was he a threat? A curiosity? A neighbor? Probably all three. We also get practical: what can you do to reduce the risk of a close encounter? Because predators aren't villains. They're just doing what they do. And if humans have been asking "why can't we all just get along?" for centuries, maybe it's time we started answering that question — one coyote, one owl, one dog at a time.
