Buffalo were separated into two groups because they could not pass the transcontinental railroad tracks. This caused the death of many buffalo (passengers on the trains shooting the buffalo for fun while they rode by also contributed to this greatly). Native Americans were displaced and subsequently relocated, if they were not killed. Many people died due to battles in which the Native Americans defended their homeland (think Custer's Last Stand). Natural Resources where quickly consumed. The land soon became unfertile due to excessive agricultural use.
