When all the buffalo were slaughtered for their hides, what were the hides used for?
Same rules. One karma.

A very common misconception about East Texans. Very few of them were actually used for that purpose, however, PETA did have a W.C.C. (Warm Coats for the Coyotes) program at that time, which perpetuated the myth.

Nah, the Indians didn't slaughter them for their hides, they hunted them for meat, hides, bones, etc. But your right, I should have been more specific, when the whites hunted the buffalo what were the hides used for?

Wolfskinner gets a karma. Without the buffalo we probably would be 50-60 years behind technologically. I don't know if that would be such a bad thing.
Tomorrows question will be harder.
