Question

Which of the following was a major factor in taking away the ability of the plains native Americans to survive

Answer 1

The bison found in the wild plains, formed the backbone of Native Indians' survival. They depended on the bison for most of their necessities like food, shelter, clothing, vessels, ropes and other accessories for survival in the wild.

The vast herds of wild bison were hunted and killed recklessly by white hunters, thereby decimating their population. When the buffalo population reduced, it affected the survival of the Plains Indians.
