Coyotes were admired in the folklore of many pre-Columbian tribes as socially subversive tricksters known for their cunning and wit. While many American Indians revered them as heroes, European colonists saw them as cowardly liars, which is telling of the different values and social structures of the cultures.

Coyotes thrive from Alaska to Panama today, but before European settlement their range was restricted to the American Southwest and the Great Plains. Coyotes prefer grasslands and other open biomes to dense forests and mountains, and competition from wolves and cougars kept them in their place. The near-extermination of these more powerful rivals and the opening up of eastern and Central American forests for agriculture has allowed these opportunistic canids to spread rapidly, hybridizing with the remnant populations of wolves in the eastern states.

This shirt encourages people to be mindful of the American Indian coyote spirit and "listen to coyote." Subvert unjust power structures, question social norms, and have a sense of humor about it.
