It was in late fall, and the wind would always blow it apart. This made the coyote very angry, so one day he devised a snare in which to trap the offender. As he was fixing up the snare he thought to himself, \u201cI will fix him!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> The next morning he set out to see if he had caught the wind. Upon arriving he beheld a man with big ears and of great stature. \u201cWell,\u201d he said, \u201cso you are the person that has been tearing my wigwam up, eh?\u201d With that he pulled his ears right and left, kicked him on the nose, and slapped him till he had him begging for mercy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The coyote then made him promise that he would never blow such cold, stormy winds again. But the coyote doubted his word, and again he had him begging. When the coyote would get tired, he rested. All this time the wind was making all kinds of promises, so at last the coyote let him go with the understanding that he would kill him on his next offense. So to this day the winds on the west side of the Rockies are warm and known as the \u201cChinook winds.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-820 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/carlisleindianindustrialschoolwritinganthology\/files\/2017\/05\/full-188x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"557\" height=\"888\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/carlisleindianindustrialschoolwritinganthology\/files\/2017\/05\/full-188x300.png 188w, https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/carlisleindianindustrialschoolwritinganthology\/files\/2017\/05\/full.png 608w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 557px) 100vw, 557px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Biography | Historical and Cultural Context | Critical Commentary | Further Readings \u201cThe Coyote and the Wind\u201d Caleb Carter, Nez Perce The coyote, once upon a time, made himself a dwelling place out of tall bunch grass.
