Answer 1

Question: Who was the Comanche chief that did not want to move to reservations and led the attack on the buffalo hunters at Adobe Walls? He was also known as "The Last Chief of the Comanches".

Answer:

Quanah Parker

Step-by-step explanation:

Quanah was a Comanche chief, a leader in the Native American Church, and the last leader of the powerful Quahadi band before they surrendered their battle of the Great Plains and went to a reservation in Indian Territory.

Answer 2

The answer is B: Chief Joseph.

Chief Joseph was a Native American leader very admired even by his military opponents. He created a retreat and tried to lead his tribe and others of the Nez Perce to Canada, while fighting the US Army. The reason for this conflict was that they were ordered to move to a reservation, which was a special land reserved for the Native Americans. Just before reaching the Canada border, they were forced to surrender.
