After the United States government targeted the buffalo wiping out the Plains tribes' main food supply, most of the surviving Plains’ tribes were forced to live on reservations, while some American tribes escaped to Canada.

Although today the Bisson -American Buffalo- is a protected animal, in the mid-1800s the United States killed as many as it could because it represented another way to get rid of the Native American Indian tribes that used to hunt these animals to feed their families. It pretended to starve to death the Native American Indians to force them into submission.
