Kristy Addison wants to find the people who rescued her and her small dog from a coyote attack.

It happened on Wednesday, June 29, around 9:30 p.m. during the final stretch of Addison香蕉视频直播檚 evening walk with her dog, Cena just south of Robertson Crescent on 244th Street in Langley香蕉视频直播檚 Aldergrove community, about a five-minute walk from her home.

She noticed cattle in a farm on the west side of 244th were on edge, 香蕉视频直播渧ery vocal and acting odd around their calves.香蕉视频直播�

香蕉视频直播淐ena and I crossed to the east side of 244th thinking maybe her appearance or smell was startling the cattle,香蕉视频直播� Addison recounted.

香蕉视频直播淎t that moment, a pack of coyotes came out of the ditch right in front of the cattle farm.香蕉视频直播�

There were three of them, and they started to head in her direction.

Addison began to back away, concerned the coyotes would view Cena as prey.

When one of them rushed at her, she yelled back, 香蕉视频直播渨hile trying to puff up to appear larger and stare him down and challenge his dominance as at this point I still wasn香蕉视频直播檛 afraid.香蕉视频直播�

It didn香蕉视频直播檛 work. As the coyotes moved closer, she scooped her dog up.

After she had Cena on her shoulders, one of the coyotes, the one that had rushed her in the first place, started snapping at her legs.

香蕉视频直播淚 was trying to kick him and back up, all while still yelling as deep and gruff as I could.香蕉视频直播�

香蕉视频直播淭he coyote has now tagged my leg and pants with its mouth at least three [to] four times. And I香蕉视频直播檓 having heart pains, as my heart is pounding and I香蕉视频直播檓 starting to absolutely panic in sheer fight or flight mode and am clearly going into shock.香蕉视频直播�

At that moment, a darker coloured SUV arrived on the scene heading north on 244th towards Addison and her dog.

香蕉视频直播淚n a matter of seconds, the incoming vehicle rushed the [most aggressive] coyote off the road and pulled up beside Cena and I, not knowing exactly what had happened, but knowing we had just had a pretty bad run-in with some coyotes and were fighting and running for our lives when they came across us.香蕉视频直播�

The older couple inside the SUV opened their back door to give Addison and Cena a ride to safety.

香蕉视频直播淚 just kept saying 香蕉视频直播榯hank you, thank you! God bless you! You are nothing short of heaven-sent and heroes!香蕉视频直播櫹憬妒悠抵辈��

The couple told Addison that, years before, on Robertson Crescent, a group of coyotes had come after their Pomeranian, and they have not walked in the area after dinner time or dusk since, a rule Addison intends to follow.

She escaped her 香蕉视频直播渟cary and definitely near death experience香蕉视频直播� with a couple of holes in the leg of her pants and a small bruise on her leg.香蕉视频直播�

Addison, who did not get the names or contact information for her rescuers at the time, has gone public in hopes of locating them.

香蕉视频直播淚 will never be able to repay you for your act of heroism that no doubt saved a life,香蕉视频直播� Addison said, 香蕉视频直播渂ut I hope one day I can put a name to the faces that saved my beloved dog香蕉视频直播檚 life and quite possibly mine.香蕉视频直播�

Coyotes are generally not dangerous to people, the SPCA said, but some lose their fear when they are fed and may attack small pets or unattended small children.

This may have been a factor in a recent series of incident involving coyotes in Vancouver香蕉视频直播檚 Stanley Park over December 2020 and January 2021.

After about 13 people were chased around Brockton Oval and Hollow Tree near Prospect Point in Stanley Park, and some were bitten badly enough to require medical attention, two coyotes had to be euthanized.
