buffalo



In 1840 on the Great Plains, 25 million buffalo were present, and by 1889 there were only 1,100 buffalo left. Buffalo are large mammals that were mainly used for food and clothing purposes for Native Americans. But as new settlers came over and took over the Native American's land, the buffalo were gradually destroyed.
