Both stories are based on a little boy, an Indian trickster Iktomi, who stars these hilarious tales about the consequences of greed and conceit. Iktomi is an intelligent and smartb Lakota Indian guy who is frustrated because Coyote keeps taking his food.
<span>Both stories are old Indian legends that involve the same character a trickster spider fairy named Iktomi. In the Ducks and the Blanket story Iktomi is hungry but in both stories he isn't successful in eating the food. Even when he tricked the ducks the wolves got the food and the deer meat disappeared because in both cases he was worried about what ever else was going on and not eating his food. I think this story is trying to tell people to complete tasks before moving on.</span>
