They were instrumental in the extinction of some ancient animal species there, like the camel. But generally speaking the native Americans lived in harmony with their natural surroundings without really 'transforming' them.

Native people transformed the North American environment through various practices, such as controlled burns to manage forests and grasslands, creating opportunities for plant regeneration and animal grazing. They also practiced sustainable agriculture, employing techniques like crop rotation and terracing. By selectively nurturing certain plant and animal species, they impacted the biodiversity of the landscape. These practices helped shape the environment and supported their communities for generations.
