Answer 2

The correct answer is B) It allowed Native Americans to profit from those using the land for grazing.

The Native American acceptance of land ownership promoted the cattle industry in that it allowed Native Americans to profit from those using the land for grazing.

The Native American Indian tribes that inhabited the Indian Territory (modern-day Oklahoma), considered cattle ranching an important activity for sustenance. These tribes were experts in cattle ranching and they did know how to herd. If cattle drivers from white people crossed their territory, the Indians promptly limited grazing activities and confronted or fined ranchers for not moving the herds.
