Declarations
:
: Research was carried out in a remote village where I obtained informed consent at every step when speaking to hunters and respondents. I obtained only verbal consent due to low literacy levels. Initially I met with elders and leaders of local institutions to explain the nature of work and ask for permission to conduct the same. When speaking with individual respondents, I explained the objectives once again and informed them that participation was voluntary on their part. I also ensured that individual identification information was not used in the recorded data. The manuscript provides only location of the study village. At the end of the research period, I shared the information and findings with the village local institution and with various individual respondents to ensure that there was no misrepresentation.
