C
The scale of hunting increased
D
The killing of large animals was discouraged
Solution:
Under colonial rule, the scale of hunting was increased. Big game hunting has become a sport. Many species are almost extinct as a result of hunting. The British viewed large animals as indicators of a violent, uncivilized, and wild civilization. They thought that the British might civilize India by eliminating untamed animals. For killing giant creatures like tigers and wolves, they offered incentives. They posed a menace to farmers, according to the situation.
