I post this when it's appropriate-this looks like a good place:
In the summer of 2021, my wife and I visited the Big Hole National "Battlefield" in Montana, quotes as they are rarely battlefields, they are usually massacre sites. This was between the Nez Perce and the US Cavalry, and was one of four battles that decided the fate of the Nez Perce. The last took place in September of 1877 and they were then shipped off to reservations.
The Nez Perce roamed the largest area of any North American tribe, covering the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana plus the provinces of Alberta and British Columbia. It is estimated that they were there for 10,000 to 13,000 years, only taking from the land what they needed to live and survive. "Us whites with 5,000 years of recorded civilization behind us" (A quote from some government dweeb) have managed to put the entire plant at risk in the intervening 147 years.
Think Mountain Dew.
