The point of this legend is to explain why there are no "curled hairs" or buffalo in the Swah-netk'-qhu country. It is coyote's fault which is what the legend explains. The legend directly affects the region or setting. This is how they are connected.

What happens when coyote disobey buffalo bull order?

When Coyote disobeys Buffalo Bull's order, it often leads to chaos and imbalance within the ecosystem or community they inhabit. This disobedience typically results in Coyote facing consequences, such as being outcast or suffering from the repercussions of his actions. In many Indigenous stories, this theme illustrates the importance of respecting authority and the natural order, highlighting the consequences of selfishness and trickery. Ultimately, Coyote's defiance serves as a cautionary tale about the need for harmony and cooperation.


What is the plot of the story coyote and the buffalo?

In the myth of the Washington Indian mytho of how the buffalo never appears west of the mountains, the plot follows: Coyote is tripping along the prairie and crosses the path where Buffalo Bill has been killed by the younger buffalo. No plot there. So the plot kicks off the story beginning when Coyote takes revenge for the times Buffalo Bull "scared him" and no doubt chased him across the plains. His vengeance is to kick the bones and spit on the skull of the dead BB. (if he hadn't done this the plot would not have advanced to the next sequence) Magically, BB reappears alive and totally perturbed. The ongoing hostility between the 2 resumes. (as explained in the exposition in the 1st 2 paragraphs) BB chases coyote who ends up in a tree, about to be felled by BB. That's the 2nd stage of the conflict event. Then the coyote and BB come to an agreement, the 3rd big plot event: manufacturing (Acme, I'm sure) a new pair of horns for BB to rut the guts out of the young bull. When BB locates the young bull the climax of the story is reached with the death of the young bull and a reconciliation between coyote and BB. In the resolution, coyote is presented with a cow that he can take back to his people on the west side of the mountains. He kills the cow and is back to square one with nothing, and because of his greed and selfishness, and vanity, has deprived his people of the buffalo. And that is the theme. Denouement is the same as the falling action. The story stops building after the reconciliation, though I can see how the pivot in the story may be focused on the murder of the cow. Just taught this story to the class. Antagonist to my mind is BB, protagonist, coyote. My coteacher disagreed. As long as you can support your answer, you win.
