A coyote snuck in and out of a Los Angeles home through an unlocked dog door Friday night, according to local reports.
Video footage of the incident shows a coyote leaping easily over a wall between Julie Levine’s Woodland Hills home and her neighbor’s. The coyote then passes through an unlocked dog door into the residence at around 11:47 p.m. PT and leaves about three minutes later, according to FOX 11 Los Angeles.
“[T]fortunately, I had not realized it. The dogs didn’t notice. The coyote spent about three minutes inside the house and somehow escaped,” said Levine, who runs a nonprofit dog rescue center.

She didn’t realize the coyote had entered until after the animal had left when her three beagles began sniffing the hallway of her home where the coyote had entered.

“Dogs started following the scent of the coyote, and that got me looking into my surveillance cameras,” she said. “…He probably just sniffled in the hallway. He probably saw us sitting there and realized he was outnumbered and probably ran away.”

Levine’s neighbors also recently had a run-in with a coyote in their yard that Levine believes is the same animal.
Woodland Hills is located near Summit Valley Edmund D. Edelman Park in Los Angeles.
