The fox and hare were brothers? That seems like an odd relationship
The importance of dreams is emphasized in the tale of the Origin of the Chinook Wind
Basically, the two of them did a stick up
The Fox and the Hare seem to enjoy annoying each other.
What is up with the trope of racing a hare?
The young man thought the seven sisters were enchanting so he tried to take one for himself. They kept eluding him. He finally caught one and went to the Sky Land to marry her so she wouldn’t be separated from her sisters.
The woman who was taken by the bears was very clever.
It is interesting how in the previous story, bears were clumsy. In the story with the taken woman, they seem to be moving pretty quickly.
So the coyote controls the aurora and the winds?
Who are the Salmon People?
What is the importance of staying with the Salmon People for “seven moons?”
Salmon seem to be incredibly important as a good resource to theses peoples. They appear a lot in their stories.
Because the coyote wanted to have the salmon for his dinner party thing, the salmon tricked him into thinking it was winter when it was really summer.
“Wolverene said, "You stupid bird! I was keeping a big piece for you!’ But he wasn't. This is the end” This was by far the funniest line and I’m not sure why.
- I love the Ojibwa tales of Nanebojo. His name varies and little bit between stories, but he is a really interesting trickster character.
