Best Answer

The turkey, duck and guinea pig were raised for food before Europeans arrived. Alpacas were raised for both food and wool. Llamas were mainly used as beasts of burden and lookouts for predators but also used for food and wool. I would also add caribou, although the the jury is out on when this occurred and how domesticated these animals actually were.

Why government wanted native American land?

As the white population grew, they wanted to expand - to own land and raise their families. Gold or other metals were found. The government could further its annihilation of the Indian by moving and then containing the Indians on lands totally foreign and inhospitable for the tribes moved there. Simply because they could. ........ (A REAL NATIVE AMERICAN VIEW ) I think this answer is false. I believe that the Europeans along with other white settlers where trying to find a better place( which I believe everyone in those days were). Due to there evil heritage of the white man. His only way is to steal, rape, an torture poor Native Americans in their land. If you look back and notice the whites are a disgusting race. A few examples the brought diseases over here from being unclean. They had no respect for the land along with there kids. In the fact of the matter is Native Amercians were whipped out completely. We are told there is only 1 Percent of us left on this planet earth. i don't believe this. I think that the Gov. is scared we well go to war for this land again which by telling us how small we are will discourage us.
