Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
The forest laws prevented the locals from hunting, but big game hunting became a competition and sport among the British. Hunting wild animals such as tigers was a centuries-old favourite activity of the nobility in India. However, during the British reign, hunting became so excessive that many species became extinct. Between 1875 and 1925, 200,000 wolves, 150,000 leopards, and 80,000 tigers were killed for rewards. The Maharaja of Sarguja shot 2,000 leopards and 1,157 tigers by 1957, and George Yule, a British administrator, was known for having killed 400 tigers.
