Why Were The First Nations Self-Sufficient?

            The First Nations people were self-sufficient because they knew how to catch their own food for e.g. they knew how to fish for food; they also knew how to use a bow and arrow to kill animals for food. The First Nations also used the animals for clothing, they skin them for their fur so they can survive in the winter time, and the First Nations also used the animals hide for shelter. The First Nations would have died if it weren't for the animals; they provided shelter, food, transportation and clothing. When the First Nations got sick, they got there medicine from plants and flowers. They also got there shelter from wood by making tepees. The Natives got there transportation from riding on animals and building canoes and boats from bark and wood from the trees. That is what the First Nations can do and that is why they are self-sufficient.
