The buffalo, particularly the American bison, faced near extinction in the 19th century primarily due to overhunting and habitat loss. Mass hunting, driven by demand for hides and meat, decimated their populations, while westward expansion and the encroachment of railroads and agriculture further reduced their natural habitats. By the late 1800s, concerted conservation efforts began, but the species had already been pushed to the brink. Today, bison populations have recovered in some areas due to these efforts, though they remain a symbol of the impact of human activity on wildlife.
