Empire of Bones: The Mass Slaughter of American Bison

In the 19th century, millions of American bison were slaughtered across the Great Plains, driven by westward expansion, commercial hunting, and deliberate efforts to destroy the livelihood of Native American tribes. Once numbering in the tens of millions, the herds were pushed to near extinction within a few decades. The mass killing not only devastated the ecosystem but also played a key role in the displacement and suffering of Indigenous peoples who depended on the bison for survival.
