<p>How are people in Ontario, Canada coexisting alongside wild wolves and coyotes, and what do they learn through directly encountering these wild canines in shared spaces? Employing a posthuman, social constructivist framework and a basic qualitative design, 51 encounter stories from around the province were collected, followed by interviews with 15 participants to delve deeper into their experiences with wolves and coyotes. Analysis of the stories and interviews led to five themes: (1) observing and interpreting; (2) emplacing; (3) navigating with dogs; (4) feeling; and (5) learning and advising. While most encounters were positive and focused on observing and being observed, participants also shared concerns about living alongside wild canines, especially regarding the safety of their companion animals. Additionally, most participants contemplated how to live alongside wild canines and employed a coexistence framework in which interactions were perceived as co-produced and necessitated change on the part of humans rather than the wild canines. Giving people opportunities to share stories, concerns, and strategies can play an important role in learning to coexist.</p>
