The Beothuk, an Indigenous people of Newfoundland, faced severe decline due to European colonization, which led to loss of territory, resources, and exposure to diseases. The primary blame lies with European settlers and their governments, whose policies and actions disrupted Beothuk traditional ways of life and led to violent confrontations. Additionally, the encroachment of settlers on Beothuk hunting grounds diminished their ability to sustain their population. Ultimately, the combination of these factors resulted in the near extinction of the Beothuk by the early 19th century.
The Beothuk were a first nations people living in Newfoundland. The last known Beothuk died in 1829.
The Beothuk's leader would be shanadwdihit ! , :)
There is no record of the language(s) spoken by the ancient Beothuk people.
At first when the Vikings met the Beothuk and Inuit the Viking called them Skraelings. At the beginning the two groups were friendly. The Viking had brought cattle for meat and milk, and sheep for meat and wool. They traded with these Aboriginal people. However, when the Aboriginal people realized the Vikings were planning to stay, battles broke out between them.
After capturing the Beothuk, Europeans often exploited them for labor or used them as curiosities, showcasing them to others. The Beothuk faced significant cultural disruption and violence, leading to a drastic decline in their population. Many were forced into a life of marginalization, and the interactions often resulted in the spread of disease, further contributing to their decline. Ultimately, these actions played a significant role in the near extinction of the Beothuk people.

The Europeans did, John Cabot set up fisheries by the later named coast of Newfoundland and they invaded the Beothuk and killed most of the Beothuk people. The last recorded Beothuk was Nacny Shanawdithit who died in Europe in 1829. It had nothing to do with WW2 you idiot!

The Beothuk were indigenous people of Newfoundland, Canada. They were hunter-gatherers who relied on fishing, hunting seals and caribou, and gathering berries and plants for their food and resources. The Beothuk were known for their distinct red ochre ceremonial rituals and their unique language, which unfortunately went extinct with the last known Beothuk individual in the early 19th century.
There were many reasons, some are; that the Europeans brought over many diseases (this also affected all Natives, not just the Beothuk) , also the Europeans took over their main hunting area, Norte Dame Bay. The NFLD government also hired another Native group to kill them off.
