Encounters with coyotes have forced Canada Post to change their mail delivery strategy in a northwest Calgary community. Canada Post confirmed employees have encountered the animals on one of the delivery routes in Cambrian Heights, which is located near Nose Hill Park and Confederation Park. “In this instance, we devised a temporary plan to deliver mail every three business days using a team delivery approach,” Canada Post said in a statement to CTV News. “We have also been in touch with local officials about this situation. Regular delivery will resume as soon as it is safe to do so.” Canada Post said any residents with questions about mail delivery can contact the customer service team online or by telephone at 1-866-607-6301 (TTY: 1-800-267-2797). “We encourage our delivery agents to make the call if they feel it is unsafe to deliver to a household,” Canada Post said. Coyote pups are likely emerging from their dens this week, which can lead to an increased level of territorial aggression, according to the City of Calgary. If you notice a coyote nearby, the city says to: The city encourages Calgarians to report coyote sightings and aggressive or threatening behaviour to 311.
