The Johnston City Council has approved an ordinance that permits the Iowa Department of Natural Resources to trap and humanely euthanize coyotes. This decision was made to address the growing coyote population in the city.
Coyote Management Plan
Last fall, Johnston adopted a coyote management plan to help deter coyotes that appear too comfortable around humans. The new ordinance is part of this plan, aiming to control the coyote population in a humane manner.
