A coyote lunged at a 4-year-old girl in Colorado Springs on Thanksgiving, hospitalizing her. Now Colorado Parks and Wildlife officers say they will kill any coyote they find in the area of that attack.

According to our sister station, Fox 21, in Colorado Springs, it happened on Thanksgiving afternoon in a neighborhood south of the Air Force Academy. Witnesses reported that the girl was with another child and approached the coyote, crouched behind a tree, believing it was a dog.
