    I had a VERY close call against a cow once. Never seen a coyote, so I can’t really compare.

      Coyotes aren’t super big and alone are pretty timid and rarely approach things bigger than it (like an adult human). Though when starving or other certain conditions drive them to approach larger animals or big open space (I.E. in a pack, or rabies), be mightily wairy.

      (This is anecdotal experience only, please take it and reference it as such only)

      Where do you live that there are cows but not coyotes? I thought coyotes were more or less a worldwide nuisance anywhere rural enough to have cattle.

          Gotcha. I knew they had spread from Alaska to Panama, so I thought they’d moved into South America and Eurasia as well

            There’s more than 30 millions of cows in Europe, and zero coyotes.

              Yes, thank you for making the same point the other poster had already made.

            Eurasia has grey wolves in that general role, although in some substantial areas like the United Kingdom, Japan, and southern China they’ve been extirpated completely
