This medicine shield has a large Coyote face and three prime coyote tails. There are also four bundles of horsehair for strength and stamina, a coyote tooth for knowledge, and a racoon penis bone for fertility, all held on with brass metal cones.

The ten long buckskin fringes are decorated with dozens of irridescent tipped brown turkey feathers attached with glass crow beads and brass beads. There is a large bronze turkey tail feather at the end of each fringe attached with another brass cone.

Coyote has powerful energy, as can be seen by its ability to adapt to any situation no matter what the circumstance.

Coyote brings magic into our lives, and in many cultures, has been represented as a trickster. Its playful, cunning and stealthy energy can often slip into our lives to remind us to laugh at ourselves.

There are many stories about the Coyote as being a trickster. Don't let that fool you, because Coyote protects the home and the people in it from foolishness. Living in hills or underground dens, Coyotes always make sure the family is fully protected. He helps to keep the family close.
