Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass destruction of the once great herds of bison began. West of the Rocky Mountains, bison (never in large numbers) disappeared. Native Americans market hunters concentrated on cow bison, because of their prime hides for trading. . . An estimated two million bison were killed this year on the southern plains.
