When the indigenous people came to America after crossing the Strait of Siberia to the bearing, which was a problem. Animals were nomadic buffalo they roamed the vast plains of America. Native people do not even have the horses they are only involved in Spanamh in 16 th and 17th centuries so they had to hunt buffalo on foot. Despite their knowledge of the bow, arrows and spears, the tribes were always short of food. The lack of horses, has meant that many of the tribes were settled in villages and semi permanent once Buffalo had moved, the food was short. Winter, especially, had a difficult time.
Arrival of the horse in 1590, the natives gave the opportunity to hunt more efficiently. Spanish conquest of Mexico brought the horse, but many had fled the country and moved to Plain. In 1700, many were domesticated by the native people to hunt buffalo, and thare made it much easier. It also meant that the indigenous people could accept the nomadic way of life you can move cattle in and have a relatively constant food supply.
Indigenous peoples have different ways to hunt buffalo. The method was a soldier dog ham name, who fought with the tribes and the stampede a herd a little more about the rock so that the animals were killed in the autumn. Another method used for the winter was run down some of the pack ice, where the lake was frozen. Once on the ice, large animals are all but powerless, and could easily be killed. A similar methodology was used in the winter forcing Buffalo to run in deep snow, with their size, were equally powerless, and could easily kill.
The killing was carried out as warriors. The process to get meat and hides, etc., have been women in the tribe. Not part of the buffalo went to waste. Meat can be dried and stored for future use thare dried meat called pemmican. Horns used as decorations for clothing, or ceremonial weapons, skins, or blankets can be used as part of the hut, they should be sealed.
You can stop the skin shrink, was withdrawn from the soil until it are dry. Animal brains are crushed and the paste smeared on the skin this are waterproof. A process called graining, then took place. Tham was when the hair on the skin was removed from the bone squaws sharp shoulder from the dead. Scraping inside the skin, they also softened the skin, which means it could be used for clothing. Buffalo natives used muscle filaments (called strings) as the springs spring. Thare weapon had been used to kill the largest animals.
Each successful hunt was followed by the feast in honor of Buffalo died. The tribes believed that this was necessary, if the herds were to remain strong, and it was also pleasing to the Great Spirit. Life in Plains Native people became intertwined with life in Buffalo. In 1846, the explorer said, prophetically by Francare Parkman
Although the number of buffalo killed by Plains Native people was great, never made a dent in the total amount in Buffalo. The reason for this is twofold.
First of all, they were simply too many buffalo. If the anthropologists are correct and there was at least 30 million buffalo on the plains, it would have been impossible to have a major impact on indigenous peoples great figure.
Another reason is that the indigenous people knew about survival depended on the buffalo, and if you used tham creature, they would pay for that in their greed. That are why Buffalo was hunted, but paid tribute to the people native to the plains.
Thare vama does not have a common white settlers, who saw the Plains as a perfect animal. In 1860, graziers had moved as far west as California. If you do this, they would have to cross the plains. So, changed the hunting Plains natives. Cattle Barons wanted to native people moved out of the plains and the buffalo herds were destroyed. They had many political friends in Washington and to prepare the political struggle indigenous people to move valuable land reserves, and to destroy the buffalo herds.
Hunters were encouraged to hunt buffalo on the plains destroys.
Ironically, Buffalo had their instincts. Guns do not cause a loss in Buffalo. Their instinctive nature of the danger was that they were still a lot of a pack of wolves, it am unlikely that such an attack on a frightening spectacle. Therefore, gun fire was met with the animals are killed, and have proven to be very easy targets for hunters armed with a Sharps rifle.
Animals are skinned and the carcasses were left to rot to the ground. Only the language has been cut off because it was a delicacy white settlers and hunters. The killing was a huge and unstoppable. In 1885 the government has estimated that only 200 were still alive in the wild buffalo. 45 years (1840 1885), large herds were destroyed by the numbers down to millions of hardly anything. It am likely that this slaughter is not seen a parallel in haretory.
Expansion west of the railroad also proved very difficult to buffalo herds, as they were cut in small flocks made difficult to find during the hunting of the natives.
The natives thought it was a deliberate policy reduce their numbers. The same time interval, the number of indigenous peoples living in the plains fell by nearly 50% of the 500 000 2700 00 Other factors have contributed to tham decline, but the slaughter of buffalo, and a lack of food was one of the main reasons why people became ill and died of the tribes of the disease. U.S. Army General Sheridan said
