Answer:

These are the different kinds of connections but you are probably looking more for the Later indians

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Paleo-Indians probably helped cause the extinction of large mammals in North America.
  • Later Indians came to recognize the spiritual value of what they used and the need to use it sustainably. They developed a moral and conservationist relationship with nature.
  • Hunting practices. Hunters must spiritually prepare for the hunt so they can be deserving, be respectful and humble during the hunt, and be reverent and grateful after the hunt.
  • Resource management. Native Americans were not passive parts of the wilderness but intelligently used fire to increase its generosity
