A 5-year-old boy and 32-year-old man were bitten by coyotes in Chicago, leaving residents in the nation's third-largest city on high alert for the wild dogs. The boy was hospitalized Wednesday after being bitten multiple times by a coyote in the city's lakefront Lincoln Park, Chicago police said in a statement. He is said to be in stable condition. Local animal control said an increase in coyote sightings is due to animals' following the Chicago River in search of food, according to NBC Chicago. Experts told the local station the coyotes are coming closer to downtown and becoming more aggressive because they can't find food.
