Answer:

They moved west.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the seventeenth century, after consuming a greater number of beavers in the modern-day area of New York, and having realized that the beaver population which is one of the major animals that fur is derived from is in decline, the Iroquois decided to move to the western part of the area, which is in the present area of Ohio county.
