What were some troubles that people and animals faced in the Dust Bowl?

Answer 1

They would have a hard time seeing in the thick dust, you would breathe in the dust clogging your lungs, and they would have a hard time traveling.

The people had no means to support themselves; they could not plant in the dry dusty soil which eventually blew away. They could not feed themselves or their livestock, pay their mortgages or pay for anything else. Much of their livestock died from lack of food or water and many of the people moved away to find work.

Wildlife had the same problems with the dust when it came to breathing the dust laden air or moving around and they also had as much difficulty finding food and water in the drought and the dust.

Answer 2

During the Dust Bowl, people faced respiratory issues from breathing in the dust, economic hardships due to failed crops, and displacement from their homes. Animals suffered from lack of food and water, as well as respiratory problems from inhaling dust.
