What is a Coyote Folk Tale or Myth?

[edit] Mika

I'm removing the sentence "He is often called Mika". That would only be the name in one language of many spoken by people with Coyote legends. Also, the only the language that I can find a reference to Mika in is Ponca, in which it appears to mean raccoon. 170.130.6.10 17:23, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Moved COYOTE

Moved the reference to "COYOTE" ("Call Off Your Old Tired Ethics") under the Popular Culture heading. Mfryc 23:29, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New Coyote Image needed

The image of the animal coyote is not really representative of this article. There should be some image of Coyote as the mythological/cultural figure, but I could not anything in Wikimedia Commons. Does anyone have a more appropropriate image? 207.69.137.25 00:53, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] By culture

The links provided in the 'By culture' section generally do not address the role of Coyote in those cultures at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.69.137.26 (talk) 14:56, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
