Yes, there was a reward for capturing Sitting Bull. In December 1890, the U.S. government offered a reward of $5,000 for his capture, as he was considered a significant figure in the resistance against U.S. policies towards Native Americans. The government aimed to apprehend him to quell unrest, particularly following events like the Ghost Dance movement and the tensions leading up to the Wounded Knee Massacre. Ultimately, Sitting Bull was killed during an attempted arrest rather than being captured alive.
