With a coyote population that has doubled in San Francisco over the past year, city animal officials are investigating new safety measures as the wild canines enter their breeding season — particularly since two of the animals were slain last summer because of aggressive behavior.

At the time of the two coyote killings — shot by state animal officials after numerous attacks on domesticated dogs — there were approximately six members of the species in San Francisco, according to Animal Care and Control Captain Vicky Guldbech. That number has now risen to at least 12, with reports of coyotes living in Christopher Park, Bernal Heights, Golden Gate Park and Twin Peaks, Guldbech said.
