Cattle Drives and Trails

The number of settlers in Texas who helped drive cattle to northern stockyards is not explicitly stated in your question. However, during the late 19th century, thousands of cattle drivers participated in the cattle drives, contributing to the booming cattle industry. Promises and bribes were often used in various aspects of this trade, including securing routes and negotiating prices. If you need specific numbers related to a particular event or election, please clarify!

A cow cannot nor does not drive a truck, sorry to say.

The decline of the cattle drive was primarily caused by the expansion of the railroad system, which allowed for faster and more efficient transportation of cattle to markets. Additionally, changes in cattle breeding and ranching practices, along with the advent of barbed wire, reduced the need for long drives across open ranges. The rise of large-scale ranching and the establishment of feedlots further diminished the traditional cattle drive's relevance. Environmental factors, including droughts and overgrazing, also contributed to the end of this iconic practice.

first ones started in Texas and ended in Chicago

That depends on how far the cow hands had to drive the cattle. Most cattle drives lasted anywhere from a week to several months.

describe the role of the cattle trails in the late 19th century

The cattle industry originated in Ancient Egypt over 5000 years ago. Same with the cattle drives.

Almost any sudden or unfamiliar noise, sight or smell will set cattle running for the hills. It could be the sudden crash of thunder, the scent of a bear or cougar close by, a cowboy pushing the herd too hard, or even the sight of a white plastic bag flapping in the wind. Similar things were the reason for starts of stampedes 200 years ago, minus the white plastic bag flapping in the wind.

No. Chemtrails are a conspiracy theory which confuse the often-seen condensation trails - contrails - and combinations of this condensation with exhausts and other pollution with a more sinisterly intended chemical spraying. There is no way that "spraying" of this kind would cause any of the commonly claimed effects without telltale others.

because of the civil war which was between 1861-1865

drivers that take cattle to different places

Chisholm Trail,Shawnee Trail,those are the only ones i know of

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.

Life was tough for cowhands during a drive. The weather might be horrible with storms and pouring rain. The cattle might stampede and kill one or more cowboys who couldn't get out of the way in time. Driving cattle was hard work - you were in the saddle from sunup to sundown with just a short break for meals, and you might even have to get up in the middle of the night to watch the cattle during the darkness (when they were more likely to get spooked and stampede). If you rode drag, that meant you had to ride behind the herd and make any slow-poke cows catch up. You were riding in the dust kicked up by the cows, which included cow poop dust! It was a tough life.

After the Civil War Texas ranchers drove cattle in herds to Kansas because that is where the big stockyards were at the time. It was also a place for the Texas ranchers to use the railroad for shipping cattle elsewhere.

railheads were towns located along railroads were brokers brought cattle to ship east on railroad cars. these towns came to be known as cattle towns. prosperous cattle towns attracted all different kinds of people which made population grow. Once families arrived they built schools, hired teachers, established police forces etc.

some problems were the bad weather,risky river crossing,stampedes occasional attacks from native americans,and raids from cattlethieves,called rustlers
