The Sioux Indians were tired of living on new reservations created by the US government. They wanted to return to their old way of life where they had freedom, plenty of game to hunt, and were not being constantly watched, as they were in 1890, by US troops. When the Sioux, led by Chief Big Foot, began doing a Ghost Dance to bring their old lifestyles back, the US troops found it threatening, so they began a defensive massacre which ended with 300 Sioux deaths and 25 troop deaths.
