How did Native American raids on ranchos push California away from Mexico?

Mexican California, sometimes characterized as stagnant or sleepy, was actually a society in dramatic transition. Politically, the changeover from Spanish to Mexican control in 1821 brought new laws, new administrators, and a shift of power from missionaries to secular governors and powerful ranching families. Demographically, the emigration of Mexican settlers, Russian colonists, American fur trappers and homesteaders, and European entrepreneurs introduced new social complexities. Environmentally, the arrival of European weeds, crops, and animals — especially cattle and horses — transformed California's natural spaces. By the time the US-Mexican War broke out in 1846, much of California was unrecognizable to native groups that had witnessed the coming of the Spaniards less than 80 years before.
