This is a cultural / religious question that European society has been trying to write about, as well as understand for as long as they have been exposed to native Americans.
There is no easy or simple answer to this question and it would take years of study for you to even begin to understand the stories and concepts involved.
As the simplest (and wholly lacking) answer:
Native Americans had a deep respect for EVERYTHING - in the world view of a Indian a rock was equal to a man in rights, as well as respect.
As a very real rule, that is about the best answer you will get from any tribal member - as they have given up on trying to get 'whites' to understand these relationships.
