Coyote was going along…

As usual he was ravenously hungry.

He passed by Buffalo-Bull and noticed his size.

‘No lack of sustenance there,’ he reasoned.

“Couldn’t you make me into a Bull?” asked Coyote.

Buffalo-Bull ignored him.

“If I was a Bull,” continued Coyote, “I could eat grass to my heart’s content and grow big and strong as you.”

“Stop bothering me, Coyote,” said Buffalo-Bull, “everyone knows you are incapable of following the simplest instructions.”

“This time I would,” pleaded Coyote.

Buffalo-Bull wandered away ignoring Coyote again.

But Coyote persisted…

As much to shut him up Buffalo-Bull eventually agreed to his demands, “go and lie over there,” he said.

Coyote went to lie down.

“Do not flee when I dash at you,” said Buffalo-Bull.

“I will not flee,” said Coyote.

Buffalo-Bull retreated to one corner of his field and commenced working himself up to frenzy…

He tore up turf.
