Coyote was walking over the mountain plains and came across an old skull. The skull happened to be a buffalo bull skull.
Coyote
Coyote saw a buffalo charging behind him and asked his spirit helper for help. Suddenly three trees popped up from the ground, and the buffalo chased coyote up the tree.
and The
Buffalo bull chopped down two of the three trees, and on the third, coyote asked for a smoke and the buffalo refused. Coyote questioned him and he said lost his herd to young buffalo. Coyote told him he would make him a new set of horns if he let him down.
Buffalo
Buffalo was pleased with the talk that he decided not to kill coyote. Coyote got out of the tree and made new horns. His spirit helper gave him a flint knife and a stump of pitchwood.
To repay coyote for making him new horns, buffalo bull gives him a cow. He tells coyote to never kill the cow and it will supply him with a lifetime with meat. He must cut off small chunks of fat when he is hungry, and rubs ashes on the cut and it will heal immediately.
Coyote betrayed buffalo bull and killed his cow. He believed buffalo bull would never find out. When the cow died a bunch of crows came and ate all the meat, then an old lady ran off with all the bones.
