The fur trade led to interest in Oregon because many animals, especially bison, lured many Americans to follow them across the prairies with the promise of good food for many days as they were rather large in size. This, however, was not a successful strategy due to the fact that many children were too young and small to fend for themselves when their parents went to hunt the animals. They suffered from dysentery, diarrhea, rape, and some children were even murdered.
