The Sioux followed the buffalo herds around the plains. With the Transcontinental Rail-road (completed 1869), the herd was divided into two, with the Southern Herd destroyed in 1875 and the Northern Herd destroyed in 1883. The buffalo hunt ended before this though as the Sioux were put into reservations, starting with the Great Sioux Reservation, which was a good size, then working it down until it was no longer possible for them to hunt the buffalo. It decreased in size following a series of wars with the White Settlers, with the peak in 1876 at the Little Bighorn following the discovery of gold in the Black Hills (which were sacred to all Indians). The Indians could not leave the reservations to hunt buffalo, which is why the buffalo hunt ended way before the destruction of the herds.
