2 coyote
(Sp. model spelled same [kojóte] < Nahuatl cóyotl 'coyote')Noun forms:1) Clark: 1820s. A small American wolf ( Canis latrans). Spanish sources provide the same genus and species. Santamaría indicates that it is a wolf about the size of a large dog. It has yellowish-gray fur and is endowed with instincts and cunning, making it similar in behavior to the fox.Alternate forms: cayeute, cayota, cayote, cayute, collote, coyoto, cuiota, cyote, kiote, otie.Also called barking wolf, brush wolf, cased wolf, medicine wolf, prairie wolf.2) Southern California: 1872. An Indian or a person with one Indian parent. Santamaría says that coyote sometimes refers to a criollo, or a person of Spanish descent born in the Americas, or to his/her parents. Cobos concurs, pointing out that in southern Colorado and New Mexico it also means the offspring of an Anglo-American, Indo-Hispanic marriage. Sobarzo indicates that it is a synonym for mestizo or mestiza, a mixture of European and Indian blood, and is common in the feminine. Galván provides a similar meaning for the term in Chicano Spanish, namely "half-breed."3) A contemptible person; a liar or cheat; one who sneaks around like a coyote. Also a squatter.4) According to Blevins, a person from the Dakotas.5) DARE (Adams): 1903. A dun-colored horse with a dark strip down its back.Also called coyote dun.6) Verb forms: to clear out; run away. -

14 bayo coyote
(Sp. model spelled same [bájokojóte]; Spanish bayo [see above] plus coyote < Nahuatl coyotl 'coyote'; coyote-colored bay)A dun horse with a black dorsal stripe. Southwestern sources list this term as a synonym of bayo lobo, but Santamaría indicates that the terms are not synonymous in Mexico. According to the DM, bayo coyote is used more often for mules than for horses. It is a lighter color than bayo lobo and a horse so designated often has white spots on its head, flank, and belly. The bayo lobo horse, on the other hand, has dun and black hairs that blend to produce a darker shade of dun.Alternate form: bayo lobo.Also known as coyote dun, lobo dun. -
