Coyotes are not particular intelligent creatures. Despite a modicum of mechanical aptitude and a penchant for calling themselves "super-geniuses," they aren't known for being very bright. They tend to use techniques that are needlessly elaborate–positively Byzantine, even–in order to catch their prey (mostly road runners). These techniques include a variety of mail-order gizmos, including rocket skis, jet packs and instant ice makers. | |
One wonders why these creatures don't just order out for some Road Runner McNuggets. Are they just gluttons for punishment, or is it the thrill of the chase that they truly seek? | |
