In December 1872 Cody traveled to Chicago to make his debut with his friend in Texas Jack Omohundro Scouts of the Prairie region, one of the first shows of the Far West by Ned Buntline product. During the season 1873 to 1974, Cody and Omohundro invited his friend James Butler "Wild Bill" Hickok to join them in a new play called Scouts of the Plains.
The group toured for ten years, and their share of the frequent presence of an incident in 1876 at the Warbonnet Creek where he claimed to have scalped a Cheyenne warrior, purportedly in revenge by George Armstrong Custer's death.

And yet, despite all the recognition and appreciation shown by Cody brought the West and the American Indian, Buffalo Bill saw the American West change dramatically during his tumultuous life. herds of bison, which have reached millions of people are endangered. Cable Railways through bearings, barbed, and other types of fences divided the land to farmers and ranchers and Indian tribes in danger once almost completely confined to reservations.

It began to develop a canal to carry water diverted from the river, but their plans do not include a water tank. Cody and his companions were unable to raise sufficient capital to complete its plan. In early 1903 he joined the Board of Commissioners of Wyoming land, urging the government federal to intervene and assist the development of irrigation in the valley.
Shoshone Project became one of the first federal water resources carried out for the provision of new services in a state that later became known as Bureau of Reclamation. After the restoration has taken over in 1903, engineers research is recommended construction of a dam on the Shoshone River Canyon in western Cody.
