Which animals were almost completely wiped out in the United States by the end of the 19th century?

I read that they killed the bison to more easily control the indians, as they could no longer live the way they had for thousands of years. The extermination of the buffalo was not ignorance or greed but a deliberate act against the native population. Just ask Buffy St Marie

The U.S. government actually encouraged the killing of Buffalo to starve the American Indians.

Stop killing the bears too.

I think it's shameful and a disgrace

what a blight

As the “White man” did, and still doing, to many indigenous people around the world, drove them out, or to extinction or to poverty & disease OR to indure horrific practices by the occupying white man, like they did in Africa & still doing in Palestine

that's the white man for you!!! are we aliens????
