Video Shows Vicious Coyote Attack Toddler at Orange County Beach
Insane Video Captures Moment Coyote Viciously Attacks A Toddler
A toddler was hospitalized after being viciously attacked by a coyote at the beach ... and it was all caught on camera.
The INSANE incident went down Thursday around 9:45 PM at Huntington Beach in the O.C. ... when a mom took her two kids to take a dip.
A surf cam was rolling and captured the moment the coyote lunged at the little girl.
Fair warning, it's pretty disturbing ... the coyote jumps up and attacks the little girl's face and has her on the ground for at least 15 seconds before she's able to scramble and adults finally notice.
The little girl was rushed to a hospital by ambulance, with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
