Not that anybody is aware of. This is why the University of Illinois cannot have Chief Illiniwek as their mascot because no members of the Illini tribe remain to grant permission to the University to honor their tribe as their mascot. It is an ongoing process that some people find offensive for some reason, but every student-athlete at the University is demanding the chief be brought back to sporting events.

Yes, there are still Illini Native Americans living today. However, the Illini Confederacy, which historically consisted of several Native American tribes, has experienced significant population decline and cultural assimilation over the past centuries. While some individuals may still identify as Illini, the tribe is not federally recognized and its population is relatively small.

Why are there not many nativeamericans today?
Native Americans have merged into the multicultural society of the the United States and other countries. As they inter-marry and lose traditions they no longer identify themselves as native Americans. There are a few remaining communities where native genes, traditions and culture continue, but those communities are leaking young members who move away to find jobs, partners and first world lifestyles. Eventually there will be nobody left who can claim to be pure native American. My grandfather was native American, but he married outside the culture. My lifestyle is western. I cannot claim to be native American.
