Security was summoned to chase the coyote off the field. A pilot on the ramp reported a coyote; security vehicle was summoned to chase the animal off the field. FAA vehicle eastbound on taxiway reported a coyote just north of the approach end of the runway. The vehicle chased the animal into the treeline. Aircraft Y landed and reported almost hitting a coyote on landing roll; the animal cut right in front of him on the runway. A coyote was spotted near a taxiway near the runway. Security was summoned to chase the animal off the field. A coyote was spotted west of a runway; security was summoned to chase the animal off the field.this has been going on since last summer or fall. The population of coyotes is growing as we often see them in pairs or small groups now. Airport operations does not seem to be able to achieve the appropriate permissions to handle the situation; e.g. Trap or shot; from the state or local government. This problem is getting progressively worse and aircraft safety is at risk daily. The above list is a typical day of dealing with the coyote problem on the airport here.
