How did the cattle industry of the 1800s build on it's Spanish beginnings
Cattle ranching started in Texas in the 1800s.
The longhorn cattle drive from Texas to Colorado was famously led by cattleman Charles Goodnight in the late 1800s. He was instrumental in establishing cattle trails and routes that facilitated the movement of cattle to markets in the north. Goodnight's efforts helped shape the cattle industry and contributed to the growth of ranching in the American West.

Factors that contributed to a large population growth in the North during the early 1800s include increased immigration from Europe, improved living conditions and infrastructure, urbanization and industrialization, and the availability of jobs in factories and other industries. Additionally, advancements in healthcare and medical practices also helped to increase the population by reducing mortality rates.
In the late 1800s the Chisolm trail was used to drive cattle by cowboys. The cowboys originated in Texas and drove the cattle to Kansas to be sold.
