Urges DEP to reduce coyote population in NJ.
This non-binding Senate resolution (SR 143) urges the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's Division of Fish and Wildlife to reduce the state's coyote population. It cites increased coyote sightings across all 21 counties since 1980, growing urban interactions, and risks including disease transmission and habituation from human feeding that may lead to attacks on people and pets. The resolution specifically requests the Division take action to address these concerns but does not create new laws or funding. It is a formal recommendation, not a legislative mandate.
