Volume 1 — Story of the Coyote
Reading edition
The Coyote asked permission from Tata Dios to come into the world, and Tara Dios asked him what he [303] would do there. The Coyote replied that he would steal the animals and the corn from the Tarahumares. Then Tata Dios gave him permission to go and make a living in this way, because the Coyote did not know how to work.

The Coyote, Canis latrans.
