Coyote

Tagged: Theme.

Trickster figure who frequently appears in Native American Folklore. He is to be found in a very wide range of contexts, running from the Road Runner and Wile E Coyote animated shorts (see Chuck Jones) to exercises in literary fantasy like Richard Thornley's Coyote: Comprising a Final Bid from the Maggot, Sundry Tricks, and the Passing of the Soul through Death (1994).
