Why was dances with the wolves considered the first environmental western?
Dances with Wolves (1990) is a motion picture adapted from the 1988 book by Michael Blake. It was produced, directed by and starred Kevin Costner who is active in supporting environmental causes. The film portrays the Native Americans as being in harmony with nature, whereas the Americans descended from European immigrants were not. Of particular note is the 'buffalo hunt' sequence, which is somewhat graphic and emotionally resonant. During the historical period depicted in the film, many Native Americans depended upon the buffalo herds for meat and hides, but they often used traditional weapons and hunting strategies and did not over hunt. The immigrant descended Americans hunted the buffalo to near extinction. The buffalo were merely slaughtered using rifles, and while hides were harvested, the meat was generally left to rot. The Native Americans were employing methods consistent with what we would call 'conservatism' today.

Why did the Spanish and Portage's want African slaves instead of using captured Native Americans as slaves?

Additionally, African slaves were unfamiliar with the land and less likely to escape due to the language barrier, making them a more profitable choice for colonization.
Why did the pilgrims not use Indians or Africans?

Is it true that African slaves were brought to replace native American slaves who died from disease or over work?
No, the transatlantic slave trade involving African slaves was a separate and distinct historical phenomenon from the use of Native American slaves in the Americas. Africans were brought to the Americas primarily to meet the labor demands of the rapidly expanding European colonies. Native American populations did suffer greatly from disease and mistreatment by European colonizers, but the enslavement of Africans was not a direct replacement for Native American slaves.
