This made it possible for pigs to always be an easy supply of food.

Native Americans came to despise the swine that were introduced to their world because they would constantly be ravaging their crops and food supplies.

Pigs grew and reproduced so rapidly that settlers had to begin killing them and going on pig hunts to keep them in check.

They had a major impact on the population of people in the New World, as they provided a huge food source along with cows and other animals. Due to the new foods and crops presented through the Columbian Exchange, the world population actually doubled. ]]> 2017-05-14 23:13:00 UTC https://padlet.com/rscagliarini2018/54zu94lkmxrb/wish/171714018 Cattle rscagliarini2018 https://padlet.com/rscagliarini2018/54zu94lkmxrb/wish/171714027 The cattle was brought over from Europe to the Americas and would eventually become a huge part in the sculpting of the landscape. They fed on grass, which managed the forests and help to clear much of the land. ]]> 2017-05-14 23:13:06 UTC https://padlet.com/rscagliarini2018/54zu94lkmxrb/wish/171714027 Chickens rscagliarini2018 https://padlet.com/rscagliarini2018/54zu94lkmxrb/wish/171714032 Chickens were another influential part of the Columbian exchange from the Old to the New World. Primarily raised for their eggs or their meat, they gave settlers and natives an easy source of protein. Chickens often produce eggs daily, so running out of food became less of a concern with the introduction of this new animal.

Many farmers and people around the world use chickens to this day, and almost everyone uses or has used eggs. But those eggs may have never been in America without the Columbian Exchange.]]> 2017-05-14 23:13:11 UTC https://padlet.com/rscagliarini2018/54zu94lkmxrb/wish/171714032 The Columbian Exchange rscagliarini2018 https://padlet.com/rscagliarini2018/54zu94lkmxrb/wish/171716499 Pigs, horses, and cattle all arrived with Columbus on his second voyage to the New World in 1493.

But eventually they found great uses for them in their meat, tallow, and hides. Natives also used cattle as a source of transportation and labor along with horses.
Today there are almost 1.3 billion cattle roaming throughout the world, and they are used as a great source of milk, beef, hides for leather, and even manure for fuel.]]> 2017-05-15 17:18:29 UTC https://padlet.com/rscagliarini2018/54zu94lkmxrb/wish/171900484 rscagliarini2018 https://padlet.com/rscagliarini2018/54zu94lkmxrb/wish/171900639 One of the drawbacks of cows and livestock in general is the toll that it's taking on the environment.

Native Americans had few domestic animals prior to the Columbian Exchange, and sheep and goats had a large impact on Indian lifestyle. Goats didn't need much management, and they reproduce quickly. Goats are known for providing milk and meat. Their milk is often used to create cheese, which created a new variety in Native American diets. ]]> 2017-05-15 17:39:52 UTC https://padlet.com/rscagliarini2018/54zu94lkmxrb/wish/171907343 rscagliarini2018 https://padlet.com/rscagliarini2018/54zu94lkmxrb/wish/171907523 Goats can live on almost any terrain and are very versatile.
