In August 1867, Roaming Leader, a member of the Skidi band of the Pawnee nation, on orders from his chief, led a scouting party to look for buffalo. The whole band—several dozen men, women, and children—had left its village of mud lodges in northwestern Nebraska two months earlier for the annual buffalo hunt. As the scouts rode along the Platte River, they carefully avoided Cheyenne and Arapaho hunting parties that might attack them and take their horses. Eventually, the Skidi party found three buffalo standing alone by a creek. Quickly and skillfully, they shot the animals and butchered them so they could carry the carcasses back to camp on their five horses. There, outside the tents, which had been carefully arranged according to constellations of stars in the sky, women deftly cut up and dried the meat, then made mats out of the intestines, robes and blankets out of the hides, and implements out of the bones. What can you infer about buffalo from this passage? a. They were very dangerous animals. b. By the mid- to late-1800s, they were already nearing extinction. c. Their herds were overpopulated in the 1800s. d. They provided many of the Skidis’ necessities.
