Since most wildlife, with the exception of deer, turkey and moose, will shy away from people. Also, the most common rabid animals people encounter are species that are primarily nocturnal by nature, so that seeing a coyote, fox, skunk or raccoon during daylight hours is unusual. Seeing the same animals during the day and around heavily populated/traffic areas is even more so.
The only real exception would be in the spring when coyotes are hunting to feed their pups. Then they will be more brazen, but also more cautious.
