   To those unfamiliar a very popular cartoon was about a coyote trying to nab a roadrunner. A coyote is in the canine family somewhat like a fox or wolf, but not as sophisticated. A roadrunner is a bird that doesn't fly, but scoots along the desert floors. They are very comical cartoons.
   
   First the rules for the cartoon . . .
   
   
   
   A shorter cartoon example at YouTube. It is 3 min. and 2 seconds in length

   So, what do you think . . . did it follow the rules?

   For the history and information from looneytunes the production company an interesting read follows.
   
   https://looneytunes.fandom.com/wiki/Road_Runner
   
   "Road Runner, also known as Beep Beep, is a Looney Tunes character created by Chuck Jones and Michael Maltese.
   
   Road Runner debuted with his frequent adversary Wile E. Coyote in 1949's "Fast and Furry-ous". To date, 48 cartoons have been made featuring these characters, including the computer-animated shorts, most of which were directed by Chuck Jones. In each cartoon, Wile E. Coyote utilizes absurdly complex gizmos (often from ACME, a mail-order company and recurring gimmick in Looney Tunes) and elaborate plans to try to catch his prey, rather than his natural guile, but fails every time.
   
   Road Runner speaks only with a signature "beep beep" (sometimes misheard as "meep-meep") noise (provided by Paul Julian) and an occasional "popping-cork" tongue noise."

   Best Cartoons ever.  The ingenuity of the coyote and his facial expressions are classic.  Too bad such cartoons no longer exist.
