Bison

Long ago, the bison gave Native Americans food. It gave them clothes, and it gave them houses. They loved this animal.

Native Americans hunted bison, and they ate the meat. They used its hide for clothing. They also made its hide into tents.

The Native Americans did a dance for the bison. They put on clothes to look like the bison. They wanted to bring the bison to their camps.

Then the bison began to die. Now, we are trying to save them. We help them to live on the prairie. They are doing well!
