What two groups constituted most of the cowboys in the open range era?
Most cowboys in the open range era were primarily of Mexican and African American descent.

Their expertise and experience were crucial in managing herds and navigating the challenges of the open range.
What was the open range and what brought about the end of the open range?
The open range was a system of unconfined land in the American West where cattle grazed freely without the constraints of fences, allowing ranchers to expand their herds and access vast grazing areas. The end of the open range was primarily brought about by the introduction of barbed wire in the 1870s, which enabled ranchers to enclose their land, coupled with the overgrazing of pastures and the harsh winter of 1886-1887 that decimated cattle populations. These factors, along with increased agricultural development and land claims, transformed the landscape and led to the decline of the open range era.

How long after the completion of the first transcontinental railroad did ranchers begin to fence in the open range?
Ranchers began to fence in the open range shortly after the completion of the first transcontinental railroad in 1869. By the 1880s, the practice of fencing became more widespread as ranchers sought to protect their cattle and establish ownership over land. The introduction of barbed wire in the 1870s significantly facilitated this trend, leading to the end of the open range era by the late 19th century.
How long did the open range period last on the plains?
The open range period on the Great Plains lasted roughly from the mid-1860s to the late 1880s. This era was characterized by unrestricted grazing of cattle on public lands, fueled by the demand for beef following the Civil War. However, it began to decline with the introduction of barbed wire and changes in land ownership, leading to increased fencing and the establishment of private ranches. By the 1890s, the open range had largely disappeared as a result of these developments.
