Coyote Roamed UNLV Campus Monday, Did Not Enroll (VIDEO)

The campus of the UNLV had a new prospective student taking a tour of the quad - a frickin' coyote!

Michael Kagan, a University of Nevada Las Vegas law professor, has been sending in reports about a coyote roaming the UNLV campus between around 9am and 11am Monday. While the campus did recently enact a no smoking policy both in and outdoors on its campus, it is clear there they lack a "no wild animals" policy.

Police were called, but according to 8 News Now they didn't respond because the animal wasn't posing a threat. Which, you know, is terrifying.

Coyotes are often spotted along the outskirts of the valley, but this far inside the populated area of Southern Nevada is more surprising. The closest "edge" of the valley is near Wetlands Park over 6 miles away, so it was certainly quite the journey for this four-legged predators.

Your first thought was "who put UNR up to that" but there is a difference between wolves and coyotes. Wolves are bigger and weigh considerably more. Still, we aren't going out of our way to pet a coyote anytime soon.

The Urban Coyote Research Project has some simple tips to abide by if you see a coyote in an urban area. The biggest is not to feed them. That means not directly feeding the animals, or leaving your domesticated animals outside for them to snack on. Just like black bears (thank you "Cocaine Bear" for the tip)... don't run away from them. Get big. Make noise. Throw something. But don't turn your back and bolt. If it's leaving you alone, leave it alone. Finally, seeing coyotes in daylight is cause for some concern. But if the coyote seems to be aggressive or undeterred by measures to shoo them off, contact animal control or 911.
