A construction site where work stopped in 2024 is now being dubbed 'coyote condos.'
A pack of urban coyotes has taken over a construction site in West Hollywood, prompting both concern and interest from local residents.
According to an article by N. Kirkpatrick in The Washington Post, work on the unfinished building stopped in 2024. Now, coyotes wander the concrete floors, making themselves at home in a densely populated part of the city.
Kirkpatrick adds, "The city of West Hollywood follows a coexistence plan that favors nonlethal practices to reduce harm to humans. The city says they are requiring the property owners to swiftly retain a wildlife control expert and take next steps."
