to the Indian Forest Act of 1865 most of the basic means of livelihood of the forest dwelling tribes were banned by the British.
The daily practices of villagers, such as cutting wood, grazing cattle, collecting fruits and roots, and fishing, were banned and made illegal.
Forest dwelling tribes largely depended on hunting small animals like deer, rabbit and partridge for food.
The British also imposed a ban on the hunting of small animals.
They encouraged the sport of hunting of wild and dangerous animals like the elephant, lion and tiger, by giving rewards.
If anyone was caught hunting illegally, they were severely punished for poaching.
