Abstract

At Salae Salae -- a village of about 500 Gond tribals -- is about a km from the sanctuary. People here practice subsistence agriculture and depend on monsoons for irrigation water and on the forest department for work. The forest provides them tendua, mahua and fuelwood. The village bhumka do docctor, visits the forest to collect the numerous herbs, nuts and fruit. The villagers consult this doctor for all their health-related problems; the nearest government health centre is in Gouari -- ten km away.
