Default Will Lion dung keep away coyotes?

I lost 1 cat (9 year old feral orange tabby) to coyotes last week. I
have 2 other cats. I always bring my cats into the house before
nightfall. But that feral cat stayed out 1/2 hour longer, now she is
gone. My neighbor saw 3 coyotes in his backyard right at that same time
(7:15 pm).

I have heard that Lion dung spread around the property will keep the
coyotes away. (I still plan to bring them in at night.)

I have 2 sources (breeding compound and lion reserve nearby) for the
Lion dung, if that might truly help. Is there any truth to this
concept?

No it will not help. The best thing you can do is shampoo the cats with A1
steak sauce. That will take care of your problems.

You say "A1 Steak Sauce"? ...is that before they are killed or after?

With all joking aside, where did you hear that A1 Steak Sauce would do the
trick? I just hope Cindy will not believe that old wives tale. The 'steak
sauce' thing is an urban legend that has been around for quite a while.

The only thing that would scare the coyotes would be the lion itself.
I once lived where we had mountain lions as well as coyotes on the land
behind our house, so I suspect the coyotes were not scared off by lion dung.
We never let our cats outside because coyotes are cat lovers too!

I figger coyotes would merely go looking for the lion to
see what kind of critter it was.

Thanks Rich, I'm not buying the A1 Steak Sauce idea, besides the cats
would deplore it. But a friend of mine had a lion (shame on him, of
course) and he said people kept coming to him asking for lion dung for
that reason, to scare away the coyotes. I'm searching for anything I
can do short of turning indoor/outdoor cats into strictly indoor cats.
It is a conundrum.
