The scent of store-bought coyote urine and smoked turkey neck did the trick.
A female coyote was lured into one of four traps placed in two neighborhoods where two pet dogs have been attacked by the wild predators.
Trapper Paul Zambrano, hired to rid the Timberwalk and Boca Winds communities of coyotes, found the female Sunday morning. It was later euthanized by Animal Control.
"I'm happy to give the residents peace of mind again, I know it has been a scary few days for a lot of them," said Zambrano, 39, of Jupiter, owner of Bandit Wildlife Management.
