Overview
- The carcasses were found in a wooded area off Gallia Drive in western Hamilton County, according to local reports.
- The Ohio Division of Wildlife says scene evidence points to the coyotes having been shot before being dumped.
- The inquiry is proceeding primarily as a private-property litter investigation, with no arrests reported.
- Wildlife officials did not remove the animals because the site is on private property, and they urge people to avoid contact due to disease risk.
- Miami Township Administrator Jim Brett asked residents to review home surveillance for suspicious activity, after a neighbor reported his son first noticed the animals about a week and a half earlier.
