The den is under a shed in someone’s backyard. The owners probably know they are there already (the pups make a racket sometimes) but some people don’t notice things outside their walls. Should I let the owner of the property know and risk them doing something to eradicate the coyotes (!) or keep my mouth shut and hope no small children stray back there and create an incident?
