Why the decline of Indians living in north America during explorations?

The Europeans brought with them disease, discrimination, and took ancestral lands from the Native Americans. When Columbus arrived in the Bahamas he viewed the people he found as future slaves. On his second voyage he took 1200 Native Americans as slaves. The colonists brought with them a form of environmental terrorism by bringing animals, plants, and insects not native to North America. These things ruined the crops and the forests that the tribes farmed and lived in. When the Europeans arrived they didn’t see land as having people living there, but saw a world with no fences and no kings to keep them from it. They had little respect for the Native Americans and set out to kill as many as they could.
