A 7-year-old Oregon girl was bitten by a coyote outside her home in Portland, KATU reported.
The child had just gotten off her school bus and was walking toward her house, located in a wooded area, when the coyote approached her and bit her on the leg, the television station reported.
"With any animal, and coyotes are no exception, we see more problems when, for example, they’re being fed and they become habituated to an area," Denehy told the television station.
