While the forest laws imposed by the British in India deprived people of their customary rights to hunt ,hunting of big animals became a sport for them

Explanation:

  • Many people who lived in or around forests had survived by hunting animals for their subsistence prior to the forest laws enforced by the British.
  • Land laws also stripped the people of their traditional hunting privileges. They were not permitted for the purpose of livelihood to hunt animals
  • However, for aristocrats hunting had become a major activity. They had the opportunity to hunt. A British director, George Yule, had killed around 400 tigers.
  • Any forests lands were, initially, specifically designated for British hunting. Subsequently, environmentalists and conservators contend that the preservation and not killing of all these species of animals is necessary.
