Liberty Village and Fort York residents call for definitive action after 6 coyote attacks in 1 night .

Six attacks that took place within four hours on Monday night between 6:00 p.m. and 9:30 p.:m. Ann Selvanayagam was one of two people who encountered an aggressive coyote.

Coyotes have become habituated to humans after being pushed out of their habitat due to development taking place around the area.

Wildlife expert says the only logical solution in such cases is to euthanize the animals.

In January , Liberty Village and Fort York residents gathered together to demand the coyotes be relocated.

Councillor Selvanayagam says coyotes are used to roaming freely in downtown Toronto .

He says the city needs to work with residents to ensure the animals do not become habituated to humans again.

Coun. Malik says she has been working to address this situation with “seriousness and urgency”.
