They have a belt of jungle, extending for some twelve miles along the right bank of the Saee river, and on the right side of the road, and within from two to six miles from it--in some parts nearer, and in others more remote.

Wild hogs, deer, neelgae, and wild cattle abound in this jungle, and do great injury to the crops in its vicinity.

The peasantry can kill and eat the hogs and deer, but dare not kill or wound the wild cattle or neelgae.

The wild cattle are said to be from a stock which strayed or were let loose in this jungle some centuries ago.

They are described as fat, while the crops are on the ground, and well formed--some black, some red, some white, and some mixed-- and to be as wild and active as the deer of the same jungle.
