What Are Channels?

Coyote Channels are small communities inside Coyote Maps.

They let people share coyote sightings with the people who matter most—neighbors, families, runners, dog walkers.

You choose who can join.
You choose what gets shared.
You choose whether a sighting stays private or appears on the global map.

Simple.
Local.
On your terms.
