""It's kind of crazy," said Joseph Soriano of Mill Valley."
""That's so cool. I've never seen a coyote swim, but I saw one in the city last night while I was driving," said Guilia Albers of San Francisco."
""I thought it was a seal or sea lion at first -- just this brown lump swimming in the water," said Miller. "But then you can see the ears sticking up and the snout.""
""I saw one in 2022," Scott said. "It was kind of fun to see. I was coming into the harbor. Seagulls were diving bombing it. It was what they do.""
A coyote was filmed swimming in Raccoon Strait between Angel Island State Park and Tiburon. Park staff on a boat captured video of the animal and identified it as a coyote. Observers and local residents reacted with surprise and fascination at the sight of a swimming coyote. California State Parks and wildlife scientists described such bay swims as rare but previously observed on occasion. Historical evidence indicates coyotes established on Angel Island after 2017, and wildlife managers believe some individuals reached the island by swimming across the channel.
