Let this serve as a reminder to all parents that all it takes in 2 seconds for something to happen to your children.
In this case, a dad is a true hero after he saved his 2-year-old daughter from a coyote attack that happened right in front of their house.
According to reports, Ariel Eliyahuo (the dad) told CNN that he and his daughter had arrived home from daycare at about 3:45 p.m. in Los Angeles, CA.
In the Ring video, you can see him getting stuff from the car as his daughter is standing next to the car.
Within minutes, a coyote comes up to his 2-year-old daughter Ariya and grabs her leg and starts dragging her.
Ariel quickly jumps into action and saves his daughter by grabbing her away from the coyote.
“I heard Ariya scream. I thought she fell down,”
“I ran immediately to see what was going on and I saw the coyote attack her. I picked her up in my arms and tried to make the coyote go away.”

You can then see the coyote move while Ariel throws a water bottle at it before it runs off in the road.
Luckily, Ariya is okay other than having to have multiple rabies shots after the attack and of course, other than being a bit shaken up.
Honestly, I am so grateful the dad was right there and saved her. I cannot even imagine what would have happened if he wasn’t so close by.
Just a gentle reminder to always keep your kids close.
You can watch the ring footage of the coyote attack in the video below.
