Where I am, we are just starting to see them come back.
During the spring/summer/fall, I tend to run circuits on my property for cardio. There is a fair sized hill behind my house that runs up into tall standing pines. Couple months ago, Novemberish, I was making that part of the circuit, and found the body of a fox. Body is actually too strong a statement - the head, pelvic bone, and tail were all that were left of it. At the time, I hadn't been aware coyotes were making a comeback near me, but speculated to my wife that might've been the cause.
Sure enough, about 2 weeks back, local paper posts about coyote sightings in the area. Good thing I don't have any pets!
