Coyote sees Katcinas, have dances and processions. Coyote calls to friends, Coyotes, and they come from all sides. He says they will have Katcina dance and tells them to go to village and bring feathers, and they go and hunt things. which they bring to Coyote's kiva. They prepare Katcina costumes, In morning Coyotes go to places where Katcinas dress up and all go to Coyote's house, where Katcinas have dance. That day Oraíbi have Coyote hunt. While Coyotes are still dancing, Oraíbi close in upon them. Their costumes prevent their running fast and all are killed, but Coyote and family, who have not put on costume or mask. Hopi laugh and return to village.
