The millions of American Bison thriving in the Great Plains were exterminated in under two decades. Five main factors contributed to this massive eradication. These factors are: technology, economics, demographics, changing boundaries and the role of government. Each of these led to the slaughter of the bison in the Great Plains and each work together in a very simple order. The most important factor that led to the extermination of the bison on the Great Plains was the role of government. It was the factor that preceded all of the other factors. If the government had not gotten the territory or enforced laws in the land to combat the killing of the bison, there would not have been such a depopulation of the bison. Each of the factors led directly and indirectly to the extermination of the American Bison which all started with the government’s role - both having land for the citizens to settle and kill bison and the government’s indifference to the killing of the

Coop D. Cougar is a beige cat with muscular build and green eyes. He’s very athletic, competitive, charismatic, and friendly.

When the going got tough Louie, Pete, and Mac resorted to things the average person would never do. They were so hungry that they caught a bird and “Louie was so famished that he went at it with his teeth, ripping the feathers loose and spitting them out in whuffs” (Hillenbrand 158). Louie and Pete eventually ended up in a Japanese POW camp and the survivability of the situation does not get any better. A monster that would haunt Louie long after the war nicknamed “the Bird” would seek him out and beat him. A theft incident would lead to the Bird ordering a punishment on Louie and two other men.

Fenn uses primary sources when telling her story to help provide background information about Mandan customs, history and lifestyle. Maxi'diwiac (Buffalo Bird Woman’s) story is particularly important because it shows how connected the Mandan and Hidatsa’s were with the land, how they were able to survive, the transformations that happened when the European explorers arrived and how important corn was to the community.

In spite of the Native Americans, Bison were hunted near extinction in the 19th century. Stats show that bison population decreases in the late 1880s. They were hunted for fur, with the rest of the animal left behind to decay in the ground. After they rotted their bones were found packaged and shipped East. Main purpose the U.S. military hunted buffalo was to deprive Native Americans of food because that was what they lived off of, also to clear the great plains and make space for railroads.

I also questioned why the woman chose a buffalo when I was reading this part of the story. I agree with you that she must have been feeling very weak and maybe even misunderstood. I think it is very likely that she was mistreated and underappreciated and this led to her feeling powerless and this was her bold attempt to be seen for the characteristics she feels inside. It is sad that she felt that becoming a buffalo and killing many people was her only escape and ultimately led to her demise. If only she would have had a person who she could talk to and stop her from ever turning into the buffalo.

How can a single family tame frankly very savage animals? No formal training, limited resources, and no experience in taming, and yet the Robinsons while stuck on a deserted island, successfully accomplished just that.
