Coyote (also known simply as "The Coyote") and the Road Runner are a duo of characters from the "Looney Tunes" and "Merrie Melodies" series of cartoons.  In the cartoons, the Coyote repeatedly attempts to catch and subsequently eat the Road Runner, a fast-running ground bird, but is never successful.
