Coyote | Trickster & Shapeshifter
Appearing in the stories of dozens of different Native American cultures, Coyote is a supernatural figure whose actions drastically alter the world, no matter how slight in nature. He can be a hero, a villain, a fool, a genius, a benefactor, but is most often a trickster. Like most tricksters, Coyote often acts in his own best interest, though sometimes acts for the benefit of others, undercutting or outright rolling over those who may get in his way. But like his real life counterpart, Coyote is never always as he seems!

I like the one where he finally catches the roadrunner.

Yeah, but unfortunately the coyote was way too small to take advantage of the catch.

"Okay, wiseguys. You obviously wanted me to catch him. Now what do I do?" -Wile E. Coyote. I may have messed that up a little, but the point still stands.

I got an alert for a second reply, which quoted his sign, but I can't see the comment or even see the alert anymore. Stupid KZread. I even tried switching from Top to Newest comments, which often works.

I got the same alert. It's possible that the commenter deleted the post for whatever reason. Happens on occasion. I'm actually guessing that to be the case since I'm seeing your post along with the alert for 2 replies to your initial comment.

Scratch that last. I'm looking back at the replies section and realizing that I'm actually only seeing my first response, although the "down arrow 4 replies" is showing, and every time I click on it only shows my one first reply. Don't even know if you'll see this.
Coyote is probably my favorite mythical figure if I absolutely had to choose just one. This video is excellent, and I'd be very glad to see more episodes about Coyote. There is so much variety in the stories told about him!
Living in Southern California, I've seen my fair share of coyotes wandering around in, sometimes, the most unlikely of places. And the sounds of a pack of coyotes on a hunt is kind of eerie even if you do know what the sound is. Lastly, one of the reasons that Wile E. Coyote is my favorite Looney Tunes character is because he is a "genius" coyote who absolutely never gives up despite endless setbacks, pain, and disappointment.
I'd love to hear more stories of Coyote please!
Coyote is among my most favorite of cultural figures and one of the most famous examples of the trickster archetype I wrote a report on Native American mythology for an assignment once, and mentioned Coyote, including a tale where he entered a cave and inside found many people half-starved and and trapped becuz the cave was actually the mouth of a giant and they (Coyote and thz people) were trapped in the giant's belly. Coyote helped the people by first telling them to cut the fatty flesh of the stomach walls for them to eat, causing the giant great pain so he would open his mouth. Coyote then led the people out to their freedom, thus Coyote had gotten the best of the giant while saving these people

As did I.
Please make a video about El Sebon.
Renard the fox 🦊 is depicted on a building owned by Anheuser Busch, in St. Louis, MO. Drinking a mug of Bevo. It's beautiful to see.
I would love to know more about Coyote especially when he was portrayed as two, maybe three, different characters in Disney's "Gargoyles."

Cotote is my favorite trickster. I would love to hear coyote stories.
As part of my coursework, I researched and wrote about Native American mythology and the legendary figure of Coyote. One of his adventures was entering a cave and discovering a group of people stuck there, half-starved and ensnared by the giant's mouth. He was in excruciating pain from opening his jaw since Coyote instructed the people to consume the fatty tissue off the stomach walls. After guiding the people to safety, Coyote vanquished the giant and set them free.
This is the first video I ever saw about the trickster Coyote. I would like more videos about him.
I had a dog play Chihuahua that was a victim of a coyote

Beautiful illustrations
Great episode. Thank you.
Is it a coincidence that this was posted a few hours before the Phoenix Coyotes NHL team played their final game? Also, the conclusion to this video was fantastic. Really profound stuff.
Every culture on the face of the Earth have legends of Were Creatures. What sets Native American Were Creatures is not only could people transform into animals, animals could transform into people. Hence the story of the Owl man who wanted to marry a human woman. He had difficulty in convincing her father to concent because owls were considered unlucky. Then there was the story of (either Apache or Comanche) man whose wife was kidnapped by a Buffalo turned human.
Yes, please tell us more Coyotes Stories!!
The coyote calls , the howling winds wail
❤ Beautiful, pure beautiful. ❤
I love his role in the Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs.
I still wonder how coyote is one of King oberon’s children

Legends on coyotes there sometimes you'll never we see them.
The 1st time I heard of him was in disney series of So Weird and in Gargoyles. 1 ep for each.
Just like Loki!
I'd love to hear more Coyote stories. He seems like the crazy yet cool uncle nobody talks about at family reunions.
I can't remember the myth exactly but when I was a child I read a story about how cyote dressed up and joined in some dancing in one of the tribal feasts!
I 🩷 to hear more about Coyote!
thats why i love thise guy channell❤❤❤
Some of rhe best coyote stories ate they ones where he thought he was being clever but gets outwitted in the end of the story.
Yes! I would like to hear more stories involving coyote 👍🏼
Coyote was friendly in Spirit Rangers.
❤🤍💙 all your videos mate👍
amazing video
Yes, I would
I know the trickster coyote or the desert coyote of legend. But folklore come from plenty of cultures
Thanks for the good video
Coyote got his named because he was running on NDN time (5 minutes or 5 hours) the day they were giving out names 10.000 years ago
The first time i herd about Coyote was from a creation myth website called the big myth.
Please more coyote stories!
Laughter amongst tears that's all I needed 🤙🏻 Never seen one though I assume it's a bigger fox!? Sorry British
i would love to hear the story about coyote vs nestle (the frogs) and how he thought water was a right
5:41 the Eruption of San Francisco Peak in Flagstaff Arizona
Please do a video on the other Coyote legends!
You should do the Kokopelli next!
There's a old Navajo story about how Metor Crater He Threw a stone because he kept tripping over it
Yay! Coyote! Now how about hhis hunting brother, Brother Badger?
I’d love to hear more tales of Coyote; yet I never knew that Coyote is related to huehuecoyotl somehow. But I think both beings are separate; I might be wrong though
So trickster Coyote can be both good and evil. Like Fox Spirits in Asian culture
Old Navajo Story Coyote wanted to marry the Bear Maiden He asked what her requirements were One was to kill a giant So he tricked the giant to break his ankle to run faster The giant believe him and broke his ankle Right when the giant couldnt fight back So Coyote deleted the giant
