Animal kingdom in CW

Jazz our dog was going crazy this morning at the back door so when I went to see what was driving him nuts I was shocked to see 2 coyotes on the other side of the road behind our house.  They were stepping off Gender Rd and toward the field which means that they were leaving from somewhere and based upon the direction they were heading they were leaving the area of our backyard.  My neighbor saw one as well but at a different time this morning and it was a different size so that's 3 coyote sightings.  Normally this wouldn't bother me I mean I did grow up in the sticks but for those that don't know where I live...I live in a subdivision in city limits of our town and have a busy road behind my house so we are not in the sticks.  I called the city about it and we are not the only ones in the subdivision with sightings.  Just how many of these things are in this subdivision was my first question and he said that there have been 4 sightings lately and seem to be different coyote packs.  They informed me that they realize its becoming a problem and are going to set up traps.  First it was deer, then wild turkey and now coyotes, what is going on here.
