Wild footage out of South Lake Tahoe of a coyote trying to snatch a little dog while the owner sits on a chair several feet away.

A home’s surveillance video showed the dog taking a defensive posture just a split-second before the coyote runs into view, attempting to grab and shake the dog by the neck. You can then see the dog’s owner leaps up from his chair and tries to kick the coyote, chasing it off the porch.

the video looks like it was shot over the summer, but has just now found its way onto the internet.
