Really depends on what area. There are parts of Mexico where the native population was completely decimated, like the more northern parts, like Nuevo León. Many of the depopulations of native Indians in the southern parts of the modern area of USA also happened when they were part of the Spanish Empire, like the Guale, Timucua and Apalachee of Florida, or the people of New Mexico, and the various people of California.
No, other Europeans killed indian natives as well. I’d say USA has been the worst of the colonial powers in their treatment of the natives with Spain coming second.

So mostly the Spanish killed and not the other Europeans?
