Trained creatures issue.
That's a fascinating problem. One I'd never considered. Horses were introduced by spain in to the U.S. and Comanches were the first ever to take advantage of horses, significantly helping their flexibility and letting them search and go easier. It was around 1700. The smallpox outbreak of 1848 and 1817, combined with the cholera striking in 1849, killed several Comanche. It's said their numbers paid off from not exactly 20,000 to just a couple thousand within 50 years. With the near annihilation of buffalo, the Comanche life-style was visiting a finish.

Comanche Indians were never too trained themselves. They didn't park, by itself, and domesticated animals weren't really kept by them. They were seekers that only killed what they required for immediate issues. That's all I've onto it to date, but I might understand this more.
