A coyote<\/a> who has had a huge abscess or undiagnosed growth on her face for over a year and charmed Studio City residents is getting veterinary care Tuesday after being captured by an organization that rehabilitates injured and orphaned wild animals<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Simi Valley-based Wildlife Care of Southern California<\/a> announced Monday it had captured the coyote known as Wendy<\/a>, but did not provide details about when or where.<\/p>\n

\u201cWCSC has been tracking WENDY, the Studio City coyote, online since July 14, 2026; we could only do this with the help of the community sending us dates, times, and sightings,\u201d the organization wrote on social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn August 7, we had gathered enough information to put boots on the ground in 2 specific locations that we could monitor, with the help of the homeowners. Her route of movement within the community is 2 1\/2 miles, where she finds water and people most likely feed her, and she was not consistent, making it much more time-consuming and difficult. Not to mention we are 1 hour away from Studio City.\u201d<\/p>\n

The organization said it \u201cdoes not normally have the resources to go into the field. Wendy brought together a few organizations that were instrumental and focused on her well-being, moving all of us closer to getting her help. Huge shout-out to #Southern California Pit Bull Rescue # Urban Rescue, and #Studio City! It takes a village; we couldn\u2019t have done it without them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Monday evening the WCSC reported, \u201cWendy is getting all tucked in for the night. She has antibiotics and anti-inflammatory meds on board. The community was feeding her from what we could tell canned cat food and cut up hotdog which seemed to be what she liked and the only thing she could eat because of her condition so we continued with that but then we also added raw ground up chicken, cut up rat innards and some liver. And she seems pretty comfortable on her cozy blanket.\u201d<\/p>\n

The society asked the public to \u201cPlease keep Wendy in your prayers; we want a happy ending to this story.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A coyote who has had a huge abscess or undiagnosed growth on her face for over a year…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1037724,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[27],"tags":[3425,276,16055,962,746,224,6080,50,39410,159,40893,52,67,132,68,837],"class_list":["post-1037723","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-wildlife","tag-animals","tag-california","tag-california-news","tag-coyotes","tag-environment","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-county","tag-news","tag-san-fernando-valley","tag-science","tag-studio-city","tag-top-stories","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us","tag-wildlife"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/117198384853591776","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1037723","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1037723"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1037723\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1037724"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1037723"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1037723"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1037723"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
