There are many myths from Native American peoples that include a character named Coyote. This character is male and is usually anthropomorphic although he may have some coyote-like physical features such as fur. He often plays the role of trickster, although in some stories he is a buffoon and the butt of jokes and in a few is outright evil. His personality traits are usually greed, recklessness, impulsiveness and jealousy. Coyote is often the antagonist of his brother Wolf, who is wise and good natured but prone to giving in to Coyote's incessant demands. |
