I live a little northwest of the area, in West Plano, and for what it's worth, the few coyotes I have seen tend to be skittish around people, braver around pets, and look like they eat well. We have a huge population of rabbits, squirrels, possum, raccoon and rats. Not to mention all the pet food they eat. Would be interesting to know if they have any pets that eat outdoors around them. And I can't remember if Richardson treats their sewer system for rats or not but those that don't tend to have a higher population of bobcats/coyotes. The trend nowadays is that the cities no longer relocate bobcats/coyotes as they are native and it really doesn't change much about the population.
Regardless, at best, this sounds like child endangerment. Leaving a child unattended in an area where you claim there is a large animal which could be dangerous is unimaginable. I am still reading, but did neighbors report hearing crying?
And I won't even say what this sounds like at worst.
