Story of coyote and wishpoosh

[Pegasus]

Has anyone ever read the story about Coyote and Wishpoosh? It is a very interesting tale about how many tribes were supposedly created, along with some of the rivers. What are your thoughts? Do you have a favorite part of the story?

I remember reading this story some time ago, and the part that got stuck in my mind was the one about the Whishpoosh (the monster beaver) swallowing a whale... How ridiculously big could he have been to be able to do such a thing?

Also, the ending is very interesting and amusing. The god Ecahni cuts mouths for the coastal tribes, and he jokingly makes them crooked. He he... I imagine the coastal tribes being rather upset about this story...
