In the Globe and Mail story today, there is a lengthy link of her performing. She's quite good.

Wikipedia is updated and saying this is the first incident recorded of an adult human being killed by coyotes. A child was killed in California in 1981. Sucks to be the first but that shows the incidence of coyotes going after an adult human are exceptionally rare and odd.

Personally, I've scared away coyotes several times by simply holding up my hands and mimicking pointing a rifle at them. . . . . . they're off like a rocket when they see that.

I think, being a city girl, she might have displayed a lot of fear when she came across them, which might have been encouraging. Wrong thing to do in that situation.
